I have set a manual proxy in Synaptic:
HTTP Proxy:     wwwcache.sussex.ac.uk   Port: 8080
No proxy for:   sussex.ac.uk, susx.ac.uk, 139.184.0.0/16, 127.0.0.1, localhost
Is there something else I need to do? Such as adding user name/password info? I 
can't get it to work.

On the original 255.255.255.255 netmask issue, I started a couple of threads in 
the Ubuntu Forums in case any of the info I posted there is any use.

But thank you very much for your help William. It's very nice to finally
have things working more or less ok.
