Not sure exactly what you mean here. If you mean that every time you do an apt-get update it contacts purdue.edu to check for the Packages and Release files, then this is correct (assuming that purdue.edu is the mirror you have set up in /etc/apt/sources.list). If you mean something else then I'm not sure what you mean. If that is the case post the output you're getting and then point out what part you're asking about. -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY!
