>          Key: MPLINKCHECK-5
>          URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPLINKCHECK-5
>      Project: maven-linkcheck-plugin
>         Type: Improvement

>  Environment: Maven running behind a proxy but "remote-repo" is "inside", therefore no need for proxy.
>     Reporter: Florin Vancea
>     Assignee: Arnaud Heritier
>     Priority: Minor
>      Fix For: 1.4

>
>
> Suppose the following setup:
> - local network behind a proxy
> - one "remote repository" running on a local machine, mirror of ibiblio
> - Maven builds get the resources from the above "remote repository", hence no need for proxy settings in the projects. Actually, setting a proxy would only slow things down.
> When running "site:generate" linkcheck kicks in, but sees no proxy and fails trying to reach outside links like "http://maven.apache.org/".
> If we set a proxy the general build process is slowed unnecessarily.
> If not, goals like "site:generate" are slooooow to run due to timeouts in linkcheck.
> AFAIK there is no (obvious/direct/simple) way to have "no proxy" when building and "some proxy" when linkchecking.
> Suggestion 1:
> allow linkcheck to use its own set of proxy settings if the "normal" ones are not found. Some property like "maven.linkcheck.proxy.host=192.168.0.1".
> Suggestion 2:
> Use automatically proxy settings from the environment (global env, not Maven's). These would be users's settings for browsing the Net anyway, so these are probably the best choice anyway.
