apt fails behind tranparent proxy
Hi, I have a debian lenny server that i use ass transparent proxy with
webfilter. For this i use an iptables script, squid3 and squidguard.
With lenny worstations apt-get update often fails but this never happens
with squeeze workstations. All worstations get ipaddress and dns from
dhcp server. The transparent proxy works as expected when browsing. The
iptables script is from a howto so my question is if anything in the
script explains the apt-get behavior.
The apt-get update errors are (from memory):
could not resolve "debian-mirror-hostname"
could not download "debian-mirror-hostname" Release.gpg
The sources.list contains several mirrors (backports, multimedia,
security,,,) but only some fails but not the same everytime i run
apt-get update.
