Hello, I hope it is the right place to ask this question: I try to use apt/ftp to install the new slink. The problem is that I'm under a firewall. I tried to set the ftp_proxy variable but it doesn't work. In the previous version of debian I was configuring dselect like that:
ftp site: gate (my ftp proxy server) passive mode : y username:[EMAIL PROTECTED] password:[EMAIL PROTECTED] debian dir /debian/ Go through an authenticated FTP proxy :n Is there any way in the apt sources.list to give such a config? I read the man page for it which is refering to a ftp.conf manual page which I cannot find!! Thanks a lot for your help. I really like what the Debian team is doing. Pierre Monestie
