Hello Everyone:

I tried to update using the update Manager in Debian Lenny and when I did that I got a triangle with an exclamation point - I think my sources list needs to be updated, because I cant get updates for Lenny and have not have them for about a month - can someone tell me where I can still get Lenny sources: This is my output from apt-get update:

End of life for Lenny. You need to access the archives,

Lenny reached it's EOL (end of life) in early February. On Mar. 25th the Lenny packages were removed from the debian.org servers, they are now on the archive.debian.org server.

In your sources.list you need to change the Lenny debian.org repo entries to the following:
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian/ lenny main contrib non-free

If you were using either the Lenny debian-security or volatile repo there's also these repos that are now on the archive.debian.org server.
deb http://archive.debia...ebian-security/ lenny/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://archive.debia...ebian-volatile/ lenny/volatile main contrib non-free

Perhaps it is time to upgrade to 6.0?

Check out the release notes prior to upgrading however. Back-up your stuff.

Thanks TT

Made a change to the Sources. I commented out the old stuff and added in the new stuff and she seems to work, although I don't know if I will be able to get updates that keep Lenny from having problems. Do they still work to plug security holes and other things with older versions?

Good Morning Hitest

I have tried at least once to update to squeeze (6.0) and had backed up everything before doing it - However, there seems to be a problem with my server being able to handle Grub's new version, so I ended up CRASHING the server, which runs my website and blog and had to reinstall Lenny because of the crash. I am reluctant to make any upgrades without knowing why this happened.
