Nexus and Maven: Access to the Maven Central Repo?

I've got some trouble using Nexus and Maven. When I try to build projects with Maven using the Nexus, Maven is not able to find any artifact. I added this to the Maven Settings:

     <mirror>
       <id>nexus</id>
       <url>http://localhost:6060/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
       <mirrorOf>central</mirrorOf>
     </mirror>

to connect Maven with the Nexus. The Maven central repo is also defined in the Nexus settings

Based on the documentation of Nexus you should configure the settings.xml file like the following:

The most important thing is that mirrorOf contains only an single asterik to get all request redirected to the configured Nexus instance.

<settings>
  <mirrors>
    <mirror>
      <!--This sends everything else to /public -->
      <id>nexus</id>
      <mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf>
      <url>http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
    </mirror>
  </mirrors>
  <profiles>
    <profile>
      <id>nexus</id>
      <!--Enable snapshots for the built in central repo to direct -->
      <!--all requests to nexus via the mirror -->
      <repositories>
        <repository>
          <id>central</id>
          <url>http://central</url>
          <releases><enabled>true</enabled></releases>
          <snapshots><enabled>true</enabled></snapshots>
        </repository>
      </repositories>
     <pluginRepositories>
        <pluginRepository>
          <id>central</id>
          <url>http://central</url>
          <releases><enabled>true</enabled></releases>
          <snapshots><enabled>true</enabled></snapshots>
        </pluginRepository>
      </pluginRepositories>
    </profile>
  </profiles>
  <activeProfiles>
    <!--make the profile active all the time -->
    <activeProfile>nexus</activeProfile>
  </activeProfiles>
</settings>

You can try like this :

<mirror>
    <id>nexus-local</id>
    <url>http://localhost:6060/nexus/content/groups/public/</url>
    <mirrorOf>external:*</mirrorOf>
</mirror>
