It can't work as the snippet name is in the wrong format
The correct snippet name is /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/NNproxy
where NN is a number e.g.:-
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/90proxy
Make sure you use the ip address not the server name
You can just preseed the creation of 90proxy, but it's kind of redundant
as you can preseed the proxy.
