Hi Mark, I've been using that format since Woody days, when IIRC it was the recommended way to do it. I didn't realise it's not needed any more but I've now changed to use: deb http://proxy:9999/ftp.uk.debian.org/debian experimental main contrib non-free I agree stopping double-dots in URLs is good to reduce potential for proxy abuse. > > "HTTP/1.1 400 Confusing request: headers before request line" > > I think that has been fixed.
