When you say "synaptic won't run" what exactly do you mean? do you get some "unable to resolve host" message, or does it not run at all? Both synaptic and update-manager should ask for your password, so it's strange that you get to enter the password only when running update- manager... When you ru

Don't worry about the description and the tags, you as the reporter don't have to do anything (and shouldn't do anything). Tell you the truth, your report is invalid (not a bug, just user problem) and I should have closed it, but I'll keep it open till your problem is resolved, just to make sure...
