Can apt-get work through a firewall?
I have one machine with a hd-installed knoppix/debian which sits behind a
firewall. Konqueror and mozilla work through the proxy - once I have
provided the required authentication. Since the package system uses http and
ftp, can it be taught how to channel those requests through the proxy?

Of course.
Let's consult our best internet buddy: Google. Or, for this special purpose, Google Linux (http://www.google.com/linux)
now, let's just search for apt-get proxy. Take a look at the 4th down: http://mailman.linuxtag.org/pipermai...ne/003044.html
In that post, the person suggests using the environment variables http_proxy and ftp_proxy.
So, before launching apt-get, make sure those two environment variables are set.

Thanks, http_proxy is supported indeed. Since I need to authenticate, the full
syntax is "export http_proxy=http://user
assword@proxy
ort"
