What am I doing wrong? (apt-get via http proxy)

[Stan Brown]

I have a Debian STABLE machien that I need to isntall at work behind a very
restricitive firewall. I have a Squid server runing thta can get through
the firewall (HTTP only ftp does not work). I have set up /etc/apt/apt.conf
like this:


// Pre-configure all packages before they are installed.
// (Automatically added by debconf.)
DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs {"/usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure --apt";};

  
  // HTTP method configuration
  http 
  {
    Proxy "http://squid.ourcompany.com:3128";;
    Timeout "120";
    Pipeline-Depth "5";
    
    // Cache Control. Note these do not work with Squid 2.0.2
    No-Cache "false";
    Max-Age "86400";     // 1 Day age on index files
    No-Store "false";    // Prevent the cache from storing archives    
  };

But it does not work, and I don't see it trying to hit the proxy in the
squid access logs, whne I do a "Update Available".

What am I doing wrong?
