You can check the status that is given in the header when this page is served by running "wget -S ...". If the status is "HTTP/1.1 200 OK" then it is not too surprising that apt thinks it has received a valid file. Maybe your administrator is willing to change the filtering setup such that it serves the notification page with an error status, for example "403 Forbidden"; that might be enough to make apt ignore the file. -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
