Use SOCKS proxy

Thu, Jan 29, 2009 3:32 AM

Hi,

Is there anyway to set up R so that it uses a SOCKS proxy in Linux? I am
getting some strange issues with the Institute's new web filtering
system and want to be able to test whether a problem I have with the
biomaRt package is caused by it.

Many thanks

Dan
