[Apt-proxy-users] Connection failed

[Olivier B. <Oli...@pu...>]

Hello,

In my last job, I was using apt-proxy v1 for our Debian network, and we
were very happy with it. It has only one problem: it was slow.

Now, in my new job, I have installed apt-proxy v2, and the speed is very
good. (note that we have a 100 MB Internet connection. :-D )

But there is a problem. Sometime, when I do the "apt-get update", I
have:

    ...
    Hit http://aptproxy stable/main Packages
    90% [Waiting for headers]
    Err http://aptproxy stable/main Release

    Reading Package Lists... Done
    E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old =
ones used instead.

The 404 Not Found is correct. But all the "Connection failed" are not
correct.

On the apt-proxy log file, I have found this information:

    2004/05/12 08:54 CEST [FTPClient,client] --> 530 Sorry, only two connec=
tions per IP address are allowed

If I restart two or three times the apt-proxy server, then all is OK and
I can "apt-get update". But next day, the same problem come up. I
suspect that this is because apt-proxy do many ftp session at the same
time. The backend for marillat is:

    backends =3D ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat

Can I set that this backend must not runs many sessions at the same
time ?

Thanks in advance.
