It looks like your apt is trying to connect via an http proxy on localhost at port 4001 and is unable to. Does your browser connect via a proxy? ssh uses a different port so wouldn't be involved in a proxy issue. For completeness, give us your /etc/apt/sources.list. I don't know where proxies are set up for apt. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
