On work I'm forced to use a proxy server (because of a firewall sitting between me and the internet). The only way I found for updating my system was to use apt-get together with a http source (e.g., http://ftp.de.debian.org). Recently I installed a notebook using the normal base kit and manually installing the current apt, libstdc++2.9, and libc6 packages. If we had a real FTP proxy, dselect/ftp would work as well, but our proxy servers only provides ftp over http proxying. Torsten BTW: I don't have any adminstration access to the outer proxies, just to one of its children.
