Yeah, I was having a really bad day I guess.

Now it is solved.
Sorry I didn't check this stupid thing earlier.

For those who are interested:
$http_proxy and $ftp_proxy were not set for root, but only for normal users
of the system. As traffic to 0/0 80 is blocked at my ISP, the connection did
not have a chance to succeed.

Sorry again.

Usually I don't reply to my own postings, but this was really a no-brainer
which I don't want to bother anyof you, as I solved the problem on my own.

Looks like a network problem. Could you reach the site with a web

Hi!

I just tried to incorporate http://security.debian.org into my apt
sources.list once again - and it didn't work once again.

This is my sources.list and what I get out of it when running
"apt-get update":


==
dante:~ $ grep ^deb /etc/apt/sources.list

Ok. Really nice hint at the end of the error message. :)

Repeating all over doesn't help, obvously.
So I'm really stumped on it this time.

The system in question is basically hamm, with some pieces from slink.
My apt version is:

==
dante:~ $ dpkg -l | grep apt
ii  apt 0.3.7slink0Advanced front-end for dpkg
ii  libpcap00.4a6-2System interface for user-level packet captu
dante:~ $
==

Can anyone help?

Lots of thanks in advance!
