When I run apt-get update on the other machine I get 111 connection refused.

Do I need something in /etc/exports or /etc/hosts.allow?

A quote from the README:

Thanks. I had forgotten about this README since most README's in /usr/share/doc don't seem to say much.

My first problem was having lines in the client sources.list that didn't match. Having fixed that I may be here:

Q: A connection cannot be established with apt-proxy on a remote machine.
  Nothing appears in the apt-proxy.log file.

This is now the case.

A: apt-proxy is run by tcpd, which may deny connections depending on how it is
  set up.  If a connection is denied by tcpd, you will find a log message in
  /var/log/daemon.log such as:
      apt-proxy[nnnn]: refused connect from <hostname>

I am now showing connections in /var/log/daemon.log. I guess that means the following may not be a problem?

  You should check /etc/hosts.allow and hosts.deny.  For example, the standard
  ALL: PARANOID in /etc/hosts.deny will deny acess to clients whose hostname
  cannot be looked up.

I am getting connection timeouts on the client as my last symptom.

Also I am not quite sure about the back_end line for openoffice. Is this close?

add_backend /openoffice/                                \
       $APT_PROXY_CACHE/openoffice/                    \
       ftp vpn-junkies.de::debian-openoffice

Thanks,

Paul
