Greetings! I found the same scenario in my workplace. Unfortunately, I think this is pretty common. I usually open a DOS (CMD) Window and before kicking off ppm within the same window. Note that I already have HTTP_proxy and HTTP_proxy_user set up in my environment. I felt uncomfortable putting any password in a file like this. I agree that a quick Perl/Tk application to prompt the user and kick off PPM would work nicely in this situation. Daruma
