Hi,
I am having trouble installing a few packages since I am behind a proxy. I am using Ubuntu Feisty Fawn. So far i have made the necessary changes using the GUI for GNOME settings as well as in the Synaptic Interface. Still i get the error

407 Proxy Authentication required.

I also added the following lines

export http_proxy=http://username:password@proxyserver.net:port/
export ftp_proxy=http://username:password@proxyserver.netport/

to my .bashrc file

Still getting the same error when i use apt-get

Any solutions to this problem?
