I think you need to set (in /etc/apt/apt.conf) Acquire::http::Proxy http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080 (leave out the user:pass@ part, if you don't need to login) The manpage apt.conf(5) also states it would honour the setting of the general environment variable "http_proxy" -- which is also used by other tools, such as wget. Similar options exist for FTP, in case you should need those, too. Almut -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
