Hello I have set up a partial mirror of debian on one of our machines. This was orignially on the same subnet x.x.1.x as all the laptops we use. Apt worked fine and we reduced d/l time emensly.
Now we have moved the box to another subnet, x.x.3.x and now apt no longer works. It stalls at the first attempt to actually get a package list. It connects to the server okay, but fails to fetch any package list. I thought there must have been something denying ftp access, but straight ftp works fine. Is there a difference in port that apt uses against normal ftp?? I cant see this myself as the mirror is just set up as an anonymous ftp server. I guess that this must constitue a bug against apt, unless anyone has any suggestions. I have tried this accross 3 different subnets and had exactly the same effect. Very strange!! Johnny.
