Answer 1

Make sure that you have at least the three core repositories in BuildConfig.groovy:

repositories {
   grailsPlugins()
   grailsHome()
   grailsCentral()
}

As a temporary workaround, you can install it directly by downloading the zip file. Go to http://grails.org/plugin/spring-security-core and click the big Download button, then install from the zip by running

grails install-plugin path/to/grails-spring-security-core-1.0.1.zip

You can also install it without downloading using

grails install-plugin http://plugins.grails.org/grails-spring-security-core/tags/RELEASE_1_0_1/grails-spring-security-core-1.0.1.zip

But I suspect you have a network issue, so the plugin install will fail since it uses Ivy to resolve the required Spring Security jars, and that download may also fail.
