Using S3Sync through a proxy server

[fredo]

Unless I am mistaken, s3sync will not work if you have to go through a proxy server to reach the net.

A quick modification solved that for me (although it seems to break the --progress option  ).

In AWSAuthConnection::initialize

replace

Code:

        @http = Net::HTTP.new(server, port)

with

Code:

        if $PROXY_HOST
          @http = Net::HTTP::Proxy($PROXY_HOST, $PROXY_PORT, $PROXY_USER, $PROXY_PASS).new(server, port)       
        else
          @http = Net::HTTP.new(server, port)
        end

And set the constants $PROXY_HOST, $PROXY_PORT, $PROXY_USER, $PROXY_PASS in your config.yml file.

Besides the --progress having no effect apparently, the rest seems to work fine.

Well I should be able to make proxy work right.  I'll add it to the list of stuff for the next update.

Will be fixed today; see announce.
