Force.com Migration Tool Issues

I'm trying to test the connection with the Force.com Migration Tool and ANT to our salesforce org and while on the company network, I'm getting the below errors.  If I'm off of the company network, it will work, so it has to be the proxy.  I can't figure out how to get the proxy settings to work.  I've entered them in every place I've found mentioned out on the internet but nothing is working.  Anyone have any ideas?

Finally figured this out with the below.

<target name="probe-proxy">
    <property name="proxy.host" value="proxy.host.com"/>  
  
    <condition property="proxy.enabled">
      <and>
        <isset property="proxy.host"/>
        <isreachable host="${proxy.host}"/>
      </and>
    </condition>
  </target>

  <target name="proxy" depends="probe-proxy" if="proxy.enabled">
    <property name="proxy.host" value="proxy.host.com"/>  
    <property name="proxy.port" value="8080"/>
    <setproxy proxyhost="${proxy.host}" proxyport="${proxy.port}"
      proxyuser="${proxy.user}" proxypassword="${proxy.pass}"/>
  </target>

Did you have a chance to go over Ant Proxy Configuration (http://ant.apache.org/manual/proxy.html) instructions? How did you configured the proxy settings in your ANT?

I added an environment variable of the below.

ANT_OPTS = -Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy.xxxxx.com -Dhttps.proxyPort=8080

I had the same issue - user name correct, password correct (I don't have a proxy), the salesforce login logs showed that my user was logging in, but I still got:

Failed to login: unable to find end tag at: START_TAG seen ...... @1:952
.
.
.

However, I had a CLASSPATH environment variable set and after clearing it, everything worked.
