I'm sure I am not the first to ask this, but I had no good luck searching the forum for an answer. New to miniconda, I have it installed, we are behind a proxy http/https proxy server. I have that configured in .condarc. When running a conda create, I get SSL error. Ive set ssl_verify: False and made no apparent difference. Any answers from the experts?
