I've start a new job today and I am trying to set up my machine to run through their Windows server.

I've managed to get a internet connection through the server now but now I can't run apt-get update as I get a "403 Forbidden" error.

This is for every repo under my source list, apart from translations(?).

I do have a proxy in apt.conf, if I don't have it I get a 407 Permission Denied error.

Here's my apt.conf file (I have omitted my username and password)

Acquire::http::proxy "http://username:[email protected]:8080/";

Here's my sources.list

I can sort-of fix this by changing all the http in sources.list to ftp but I still have issues with ppas
