That I do not know. But the default port for approx is 9999 so you
should be able to specify the approx server during the installation (or
preseed it). That will result in a "Acquire::http::Proxy" line in
/etc/apt/apt.conf similar to what I showed you earlier.

Do you really need approx if you have only the one machine?
