Hi,

I would like to upgrade apache version from 1.3.9-13.2 to apache-dev_1.3.9-13.2 which allow me to used apxs command. I follow the instruction on Release Notes for Debian GNU/Linux 2.2('potato'), Intelx86 Chapter 3 Upgrades from previous release (http://www.debian.org/releases/2.2/i386/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html). Here is the setting in sources.list

------------------------------------------------------------------------
deb file:/var/ftp/debian potato main apache-dev_1.3.9-13.2.deb

------------------------------------------------------------------------
I stored the .deb file in :
/var/ftp/debian/dists/potato/main/binary-i386/apache-dev.1.3.9-13.2.deb

A error message displayed :
------------------------------------------------------------------------

 File not found

questions:
1) I suspect I make a mistake on the path setting. I have tried to amend the directory path with few combination. Unfortunately it not work. Can anyone help me on this ?

2) Can I upgrade apache from apache orginasation www.apache.org instead of .deb file ??

3) May I know what is the command to check the version of debian that I am using ?

Any help is appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

best regards,
Kennice
