Just deicided to make an HOWTO from a reply i gave to someone in the archives. Since there is still people having problem to apt-get here is how i finally make everything work right!

First of all you need ntlmaps.


sudo apt-get install ntlmaps

After the package is installed edit:


sudo gedit /etc/ntlmaps/server.cfg

Fill with proper info EVERY option. Sometimes ntlmaps wont work without a domain configures in the file! remember this!


After making sure everything in /etc/ntlmaps/server.cfg is set you still need to setup apt to work with ntlmaps

so with your favorite editor edit:


sudo /etc/apt/apt.conf


Acquire::http::Proxy "http://127.0.0.1:5865";

Remember that the port used in /etc/ntlmaps/server.cfg is the one you have to use.

Save your setting and restart ntlmaps


sudo /etc.init.d/ntlmaps -force-reload

Also configure the proxy setting in your favority internet browser using:

localhost and the port your use in /etc/ntlmaps/server.cfg

DONE! know your apt will download at the connection MAX speed Cheesy

It works for me perfectly.. If any problem let me know!!!!


TO-DO:
I will attach my working /etc/ntlmaps/server.cfg

//note: where the howto goes now? :lolflag:

Hi XplOzIOn,

Did you get this working in PCLinuxOS Gnome 2008 or PCLinuxOS 2007? Because I was able to install and get ntlmaps working under ubuntu. My question was has anyone got it working under those OS as stated earlier? I know how to install and configure ntlmaps.
