Re: How to get the current security updates on CD?



In a stormy day a lighting flash occurred: it carried the message from kynn@panix.com:

§ How can I get the security updates in CD form?
§ I went to http://www.debian.org/security, but I couldn't find anything
§ like CD images.

You better add the following lines in /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main   <<<--only if you run sarge (testing) version of Debian GNU/Linux
deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main    <<<-- correct for woody

then connect to Internet:
root# apt-get update
to refresh the list of packages availables on the source sites, then
root# apt-get upgrade
....

have fun!
