Re: apt problems



I don't believe www.debian.org is a site containing Debian packages.  The
apt package includes a sources.list which contains both us and non-us
sites which will work.

I have attached a copy.

There are others, such as llug.sep.bnl.gov (hopefully README.mirrors will
list them some day).
