I do not know what your network setup is. However I am behind a firewall and the following is able to path it: [03:11:20 /tmp]$ grep -A23 Acquire /etc/apt/apt.conf Acquire { // HTTP method configuration http { Proxy "http://Proxy.israsrv.net.il:8080"; Timeout "120"; }; // FTP method configuration ftp { Proxy "ftp://Proxy.israsrv.net.il:8080"; Timeout "120"; /* Passive mode control, proxy, non-proxy and per-host. Pasv mode is prefered if possible */ Passive "true"; Proxy::Passive "true"; }; }; [03:11:26 /tmp]$ > > shaya potter > -- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > On Fri, 8 Sep 2000, Julio Merino wrote: > > > On Fri, Sep 08, 2000 at 01:43:17PM -0400, Shaya Potter wrote: > > > > > > > > How can one use Socks and apt/dselect together?
