First time I've tried to upgrade my distro. Following the directions I edited /etc/apt/source.list and changed all "lenny" to "squeeze" and all "stable" to "testing".
Example: deb http://debian.crosslink.net/debian/ squeeze main

Then I 'aptitude update' and get output:

None of my servers listed in source.list seem to work. So when I next try to upgrade aptitude or dpkg, neither want to. Nor of course does 'aptitude full-upgrade'.

And yes, I'm doing all this as root.

Thanks for any help

My suggestion is to try another server known to work, like http://ftp.debian.org , for example.
