Your belief is incorrect. The default config has not changed (which is why I asked you to post it). >> >> Please post the output of:- >> $ grep "allowed_hosts" /etc/apt-cacher/apt-cacher.conf > > root@ricks-hp:~# grep "allowed_hosts" /etc/apt-cacher/apt-cacher.conf > # addresses must be matched by allowed_hosts and not by denied_hosts to be > # permitted to use the cache.

The default is *not* to allow access from all hosts. Uncomment that last quoted line, or add a line:- allowed_hosts=$my_subnet (replace that with the actual subnet) OR allowed_hosts=$my_laptop (replace that with the static IP address of your laptop) OR just uncomment it and rely on no port forwarding from your firewall to restrict connections to your LAN > > I don't have much time right now.

I suggest you read comments in /etc/apt-cacher/apt-cacher.conf, and if that isn't clear enough - try "man apt-cacher".
