The development machine cannot access the internet, and take about 60s to timeout. When I try to build, I see 

Downloading: http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/com/google/gsa-connector/2.8.0/gsa-connector-2.8.0.pom

However, I have the following in my POM:

    <repository>
      <id>bb-nexus</id>
      <url>http://repo.dev.bloomberg.com/content/groups/public</url>
      <releases><enabled>true</enabled></releases>
      <snapshots><enabled>true</enabled></snapshots>
    </repository>
    <repository>
      <id>nexus-3rdparty</id>
      <url>http://repo.dev.bloomberg.com/content/repositories/thirdparty/</url>
      <releases><enabled>true</enabled></releases>
      <snapshots><enabled>true</enabled></snapshots>
    </repository>

It always tries to go to repo.maven first. I even tried to add to D:\.m2\settings.xml

<settings>
  <mirrors>
    <mirror>
      <!--This sends everything else to /public -->
      <id>nexus</id>
      <mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf>
      <url>http://repo.dev.bloomberg.com/content/groups/public</url>
    </mirror>
  </mirrors>

based on http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-mirror-settings.html yet it continues to try repo.maven first. I’m using Apache Maven 3.0.4 (r1232337; 2012-01-17 03:44:56-0500)

I can’t use -o because it still needs to access the local repo.dev.

Here is with ‘effective-settings’:

    All pom files inherit from the maven super POM
    http://maven.apache.org/ref/3.0.4/maven-model-builder/super-pom.html
    which contains this entry:

    <repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>central</id>
        <name>Central Repository</name>
        <url>http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2</url>
        <layout>default</layout>
        <snapshots>
            <enabled>false</enabled>
        </snapshots>
    </repository>
</repositories>

    Try setting this in your pom (with <id>central</id>):

    <repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>central</id>
        <url>http://repo.dev.bloomberg.com/content/groups/public</url>
        <releases>
            <enabled>false</enabled>
        </releases>
    </repository>
</repositories>

<pluginRepositories>
    <pluginRepository>
        <id>central</id>
        <url>http://repo.dev.bloomberg.com/content/groups/public</url>
        <releases>
            <enabled>false</enabled>
        </releases>
    </pluginRepository>
</pluginRepositories>
