I use apt-proxy from Sid all the time for about 30 or so machines in IIT-B. Works really well. The older 1.3x version seems to be in Woody and the newer 1.9x version in Sid. It should get into Sarge in due course. For now you can try using the one in Sid. Sorry I have no experiance with debarchiver, would love to hear from people who do.
i downloaded the apt-proxy 1.3 (there were some dep. prob. for 1.9), anyways i am not getting it to work. can u please send me the /etc/apt-proxy and the source.lists files ? thank you.

Maybe the answer lies in how you solved the first problem ... with the proxy authorization ... chance of confusion here between "apt-proxy" and the actual http / ftp prxy that the IUCAA network is running. Is this question related to apt-proxy or just a normal apt-get through a network proxy?
I assume "apt-get" said connection refused ... probably refused by the network proxy. Dunno how that would relate to /etc/hosts.allow ... whose hosts.allow did you change? Why? What changes did you make?
Can you paste the actual error message generated by apt-get?
Sameer.
this question is related to the apt-proxy, and not apt-get. each machine can go online and fecth packages.
