In case you missed it in the subject, I'm using Redhat 9 and apt-get,
though as far as I can tell the debian users who posted suggestions last
time all posted stuff that did apply to redhat apt.  Anyway,  I've asked
about this error that I'm getting when I do an apt-get update:

Failed to fetch
http://ayo.freshrpms.net/redhat/9/i386/base/pkglist.updates  Size
mismatch

and received no answers.  I finally searched around on google some more
and found something somewhat helpful.  An email discussion between a
user and a freshrpms dude where the user was getting the same message. 
The freshrpms dude suggested that maybe this was being caused by the
user being behind a caching proxy.  The user insisted that he wasn't and
so no resolution was reached.  I know that I am behind a transparent
caching proxy here at work so I was hoping the discussion would lead to
a solution to this problem, but it didn't.  I was wondering if any of
you knew what to do about this transparent caching proxy problem.  It
looks like maybe I just need to somehow make sure I'm not getting a
cached copy of these *list.* files.

Thanks,

Bryan
