How differently is Debian treating this variable?'http_proxy=http://host:port@user@domain.pt:password'
I am pretty sure that I only have to get right the part of the user to authenticate to the proxy.

No! Still no change! I have changed my password to something without any characters that need escaping, now I just have the '@' and the dot in the domain part. I still get the 'couldn't resolve proxy name' error. On internet explorer (BAH), when it shows me the login window to authenticate to the proxy I enter as user 'user@domain.pt' and a plain password. In Firefox I don't need the '@domain.pt' part. In Debian I just enter:

This indicates the proxy is not available to your machine. Can you try simply pinging that host.antmon wrote:'couldn't resolve proxy name'

Hi Shador!
Looking again you are right! I interpreted this has the user and passwd was not being accepted by the proxy. I'll have to see my notes on the replies from the proxy.
I did try to ping the proxy but it didn't work. This could be because the proxy is not responding to the ping, right?
How can I work around this? Updating is not very important but installing applications is. Any ideas!?
