Metsploit Update - Could not connect to server

[karnivore]

Hi!

Well this could be a real dumb question but anyways; I downloaded metaspolit framework for Windows and I am comfortable using it. My computer connects to a HTTP proxy for Internet access. When I try updating Metasploit using the Metasploit Update shortcut on the desktop I get the following

[*] Updating the Metasploit Framework...

svn: OPTIONS of 'hxxps //metasploit.com/svn/framework3/trunk': could not connect to server (hxxps //metasploit.com)
[*] Update complete

I looked at the Subversion FAQ under the Proxy section [hxxp //subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#proxy] and yet I am stumped. I cannot find the "servers" file under the path that is mentioned in the article [C:\Documents and Settings\administrator\Application Data\subversion] or in the installation directory for metasploit. I know I have to edit some config file to set the proxy for internet access for metasploit but I dont know which file. Please help me guys..

That's a Windows path mentioned in your post - you realise this is a support forum for BackTrack - which is a Linux distribution - right?

We do not support windows here. I would suggest either some windows forum or one of the myriad metasploit communication methods.
