Also my settings.xml - is clean except for proxy entry. I tried using domainname/username and only user name. No Luck . BTW -  I am using Maven 3.0.4

Seems like a mis-configuration of your maven settings. Can you access other repositories through your maven proxy?

[rangoo]

Yeah, I was able to download from other repos. It is just alfresco repos I am not able to download. Also my maven settings file is clean as you can see. I use maven for other projects , but never had this issue.

[frederikherema1]

That's really strange. The alfresco maven is just a plain old nexus install and AFAIK with no customizations than could explain this kind of behavior.

Are you using the http:// or https:// repository location?

[rangoo]

I tried both but no luck.

[ronald_van_kuij]

Maybe an internal proxy?

[rangoo]

Yeah, it seems to be the case. I tried from home ntwk, I had no issues.

Yup, NTLM =  windows network single sign on (had to do a project once with it long time ago - Ugh!).

Probably a strict proxy
