I'd wonder if setting up both might cause the conflict David described. If you haven't done so, then try setting up just apt-get by making the file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/NNproxy (where NN is some number eg 05proxy). The line to use is :- Acquire::http::Proxy "http://127.0.0.1:8123"; If that doesn't work then try removing /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/NNproxy and set up synaptic to use http://127.0.0.1:8123 You can check to see if the proxy is being used by altering the port number (8123) to something that's not in use and hence generating an error. > -- > "Once you become Real, you can't become Unreal again.
