It could not resolve ftp.debian.org. That is the problem. Concentrate on debugging that. Do not get distracted by other shiney squirrels! Please show us: cat /etc/resolv.conf Please ping ftp.debian.org (not debian.org as you showed earlier) and tell us if you can get to those archives. For me ftp.debian.org resolves to a machine across the ocean in the Netherlands. It is almost always better to use one of the country local mirrors. Please select an archive in your country. Here is a reference: http://www.debian.org/mirror/list Then change that to something like: deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian wheezy main contrib non-free Or perhaps try out the new fangled http.debian.net redirector. http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror Using something like: deb http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy main contrib non-free Bob
