[Rd] Linux and proxy problem (PR#8488)

[Kasper Daniel Hansen]

1. This is not a bug, please read the posting rules.
2. You have submitted two bug reports

This means a member of R-core has to spend valuable time cleaning up  
after you. Behavior like this is not going to help you getting an  
answer.

Nevertheless, I will try: you are probably behind a firewall. Your  
system administrator needs to allow R to access the internet. This  
has nothing to do with R and everything to do with how your network  
is configured. This is something your system administrator should be  
able to help you with. Can you access the internet at all from your  
linux box?
