[BioPython] Scripts cannot connect

[João Rodrigues]

Hello all! I solved my problem a few weeks ago on Windows but now that I've
changed to Linux, it is back again.

I have this script:

#!/usr/bin/env python

from SOAPpy import WSDL

wsdl = 'http://soap.genome.jp/KEGG.wsdl'

serv = WSDL.Proxy(wsdl)

genes = ["eco:b1002", "eco:b2388"]

results = serv.mark_pathway_by_objects("path:eco00010", genes)

print results

Everytime I try to run it, it gets me a timeout. I solved the problem in
Windows by setting up env_variables. Here, the bash can access the web (it
has its env_var http_proxy set) but my scripts can't.. any help?

Thanks in advance!
