Running A File-, Print-, Proxy-, DHCP-, AND Time-Server - Apt Problem

[nzfoxnet]

Hi Guys,

Whenever I install ebox I lose apt-update and apt-get communication, although wget works and before ebox install it worked.

I have tried stopping ebox, opening up port 21 in ebox, and a fresh install. Apt stopped working immediatley after install before any configuration.

pnr1:~/tmp# apt-get update
Hit http://ebox-platform.com ebox/ Packages
Ign http://ebox-platform.com ebox/ Release
Hit http://ebox-platform.com extra/ Packages
Ign http://ebox-platform.com extra/ Release

Err ftp://debian.ihug.co.nz stable/main Packages
Could not connect to debian.ihug.co.nz:21 (203.109.252.55), connection timed out

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

I installed falcos vm image and it works flawlessly, I can't see where I went wrong. I would love to know the cause for future reference.

Ah ok, Falcos vm image had all sources set as http://, set my nz sources to http://ftp.... and they worked.

Must be something with ebox iproute blocking non standard services.

Maybe your firewall doesn't allow FTP connections, or debian.ihug.co.nz offers its service only on port 80 (http), not 21 (ftp).

Yeah ebox 0.71 only alters iptables for a certain chain - output i think. It was stopping me running openvpn as well, I gave up and set up CUPS with web interface.

did you try to change your source mirror/site?

[maske]

there are only two sites for ebox that is notice from their sites :( :( :(

[falko]

What's in your /etc/apt/sources.list?

[maske]

here is my source.list

deb http://ftp.tr.debian.org/debian/ stable main
deb-src http://ftp.tr.debian.org/debian/ stable main
deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib

thank you for your help

[falko]

Did you remove

deb http://ebox-platform.com/debian/stable/ ebox/
deb http://ebox-platform.com/debian/stable/ extra/

from your sources.list again? These lines must be in there, and then you must run
apt-get update
