The syntax of the file is -.IR variable = value . -Quotes are not required around -.IR value s. -Comments start with a '#' and end at the next newline. Blank lines are -ignored. The following -.I variables -are understood: -.IP Firewall -is the hostname of a machine which acts as an FTP firewall. This can be -overridden by an environment variable -.IR FTP_FIREWALL . -If specified, and the given hostname cannot be directly contacted, a connection -is made to the firewall machine and the string -.B @hostname -is appended to the login identifier. This type of setup is also known as an -FTP proxy. -.IP ProxyLogName -is a parameter used by some firewall FTP proxies. It is used to authorize -the user specified by -.I ProxyLogName -to send data beyond the -.I Firewall -machine. -.IP ProxyPassword -is the password used to authenticate -.I ProxyLogName -on the -.I Firewall -machine. -.IP TimeOut -sets a timeout value in seconds (the default is sixty seconds). -.IP Passive -is either -.B true -or -.BR false . -If true, then all data transfers will be done using passive mode. This is -required for some dumb FTP servers and firewall configurations. It can -also be overridden by the environment variable -.IR FTP_PASSIVE . -.IP Verbose -is either -.B true -or -.B false, -and makes the FTP method output more data than it normally does. -.IP Debug -is either -.B true -or -.B false, -and makes the FTP method output debugging information. This variable is -not currently implemented. -.IP MaxReTry -sets the number of times a connection is re-tried before giving up (the -default is twice). -.SH SEE ALSO -.BR apt (8), -.BR apt-get (8) -.SH BUGS -See . If you wish to report a -bug in -.BR apt-get , -please see -.I /usr/doc/debian/bug-reporting.txt -or the -.BR bug (1) -command. -.SH AUTHOR -APT was written by the APT team . -- cgit v1.2.3-70-g09d2
