After about 5 minutes I get: ftp: connect: Connection timed out. How do I tell the console to use my proxy server the way Netscape does? I thought that all of that would be taken care of by setting up tcp/ip. Since Netscape works, I am puzzled about the console. I can't use apt-get or anything that uses the console to connect to the Internet.
