Security in sources.list

[Keith O'Connell <keith_oconnell@bigfoot.com>]

Hi,

I have the following lines relating to security in my sources.list;

deb http://security.debian.org stable/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org stable/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib
non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main
contrib non-free

However I have been told by a friend that only the top one of the lines
actually means anything as there are no "non-us" or "src" sites for
security downloads. Is this correct`?

I was also told that the security is only for "stable" and similar
entries for "testing" and "unstable", also do not exist.

Can anyone clarify this for me?

Why are there no mirror sites for "security"?

Keith
