dselect FTP thru proxy problem
Hi All,
I'm trying to install packages via dselect and FTP. First, let me
say I can ftp to ftp.debain.org "maunally" just fine. When I use
dselect, however, it falls over with:
Net::FTP: Unexpected EOF on command channel at
/usr/lib/dpkg/methods/ftp/setup line 150
Line 150 is:
if(!$ftp->login($::username, $pass)) { print $ftp->message()) . "\n";
die "error"; }
In both cases I run through a proxy ftp server on my lan called proxysys.
Here are the responses I provide the perl script:
Enter ftp site [proxysys]:
Use passive mode [n]: BTW, what is passive mode?
Enter username [anonymous#ftp.debian.org]: proxy ftp server requires
this format
Enter password [cumbow@cardinal-software.com]:
Enter debian directory [debian]:
Enter space separated list of distributions to get
[stable]:
Enter directory to download binary package files to
(relative to /var/lib/dpkg/methods/ftp/)
[debian]:
... then I get:
Connecting to proxysys...
Login as anonymous#ftp.debian.org...
Net::FTP: Unexpected EOF on command channel at
/usr/lib/dpkg/methods/ftp/setup line 150
FTP ERROR
query/setup script was terminated by a signal: Broken pipe.
Press RETURN to continue.
Line 150 is:
if(!$ftp->login($::username, $pass)) { print $ftp->message()) . "\n"; die
"error"; }
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Len
