I just bought a linksys firewall and am not having an unexpected error. When I try to run apt-get I am not able to download anything. When I run I get this massage after a minute: Data socket connect timed out Failed to fetch ftp://debian.pipcom.com/debian/debian/pool/main/a/aumix/aumix_2.8-6_i386.deb Data socket connect timed out
I also notice that I can't ftp outside the firewall unless I specify passive mode. So, it seems that apt-get is trying to ftp using active mode. However, I thought that apt-get used passive mode by default. Am I wrong about that? How can I tell apt-get to use passive mode for ftp transfers, I didn't find the apt.conf man page to be very clear about this since it seems that it assumes apt-get will run in passive mode? Or, is there something else wrong that I am missing? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
