pear upgrade

Contents are Direct Alliance Corporation CONFIDENTIAL - PROBLEM: - I'm trying to run a pear upgrade on a sever that does not have access to the internet. - I have also tried $pear <file>.tgz, however I don't have zlib, and I really can't bring down the server. OPTIONS: - I may have access to a proxy server. Is their a way to connect pear to a proxy, or another way to retrieve the files? - Can I just copy the pear packages (Mail, and Mime_Mail) to /usr/local/lib/php/Mail? Would this allow for the pear -l info to be undated? And could I do this to all pear packages?
