apt-get proxy
Also once I have downloaded/upgraded using dselect to apt-get how do I configure apt-get to use the MS-proxy on company lan, which doesn't require authentication Thanks once more Michael
apt-get proxy config?
Hi, I'm relatively new to debian and I'm having a little confusion setting up my /etc/apt/sources.list file for use behind a squid proxy-firewall. I can't seem to get the format right! I guessed that it may be: deb http://squid.cqu.edu.au:3128/www.au.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-US however this doesn't appear right as the proxy server returns the error: 400 Bad Request What am I doing wrong? Thanks in Advance, Peter Firmstone.

Using a proxy for FTP won't work unless you use a little trick : go into /usr/lib/apt/methods, and link ftp to http. It works for me. -- Laurent Martelli [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Debian + apt-get & proxy
Hey Everyone I just finished installing debian onto a to be fax server, but yes as is tobe expected there is alot which still needs to be done.Therefore I was wondering, how do I get apt-get to authenticate against oursquid proxy here with a specific username & password ? I aintcompletly sure as to how todo it or whether it can be done or not, but itwould be a huge help if it could, and if anyone does know how, if theycould contact me ? On or off the list, does not matter.

I believe apt knows about http_proxy and ftp_proxy environment variables, so try to define them both as http://squid.cqu.edu:3128/ In case of bash: bash$ export http_proxy="http://squid.cqu.edu:3128/"; bash$ export ftp_proxy="http://squid.cqu.edu:3128/"; or, if in [t]csh: $ setenv http_proxy http://squid.cqu.edu:3128/ $ setenv ftp_proxy http://squid.cqu.edu:3128/ Best regards. --- Alex Titov
RE: apt-get proxy config?
Hi! Read man apt-get It explains how to permanently set up proxies for apt. IIRC: (in /etc/apt/apt.conf add) Acquire::http::proxy "http://yourproxy:yourport/";; Christian > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of > Peter Firmstone > Sent: Sunday, May 21, 2000 3:54 PM > To: debian > Subject: apt-get proxy config? > > > Hi, > > I'm relatively new to debian and I'm having a little confusion setting > up my /etc/apt/sources.list file for use behind a squid proxy-firewall. > > I can't seem to get the format right! > > I guessed that it may be: > > deb http://squid.cqu.edu.au:3128/www.au.debian.org/debian stable main > contrib non-US > > however this doesn't appear right as the proxy server returns the error: > 400 Bad Request > > What am I doing wrong? > > Thanks in Advance, > > Peter Firmstone.

On or off the list, does not matter. You can set up apt-get in /etc/apt/apt.conf or set the http_proxy environment variable, see man apt.conf for details, see zless /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/configure-index.gz for, well, examples.
