Uhm, maybe some application (syscall) firewall. Is apparmor in the game? Can you enter the web interface from a browser and run password-protected tasks there? Otherwise, time to dig in the mud: First, set the Debug option in the config. 7 should do. Also disable the password temporarily, in security.conf (restore later). Call that URL from shell environment (with quotes due to &, of course). Does this work? If not, strace it. What happens with the connect call? Also observe the daemon: strace -f -p $(pidof apt-cacher-ng) Eventually check /var/log/apt-cacher-ng/apt-cacher.err for further clues. Please report whether this investigation provided you with any useful inspiration. Good luck! Eduard. -- <BigAcE^23> ja dann gib mal bitte ne addy <jjFux> Eine die kewl funzen tut? <BigAcE^23> jupp
