Re: Check Update, Update and Port Blocking

[Bill Wood <william.wood3@comcast.net>]

This is an update on my post on 02/20.  I got the "yellow triangle" icon
again so I went into admin for my Wireless Gateway and reset the
security level to intermediate or "typical".  I then clicked on the icon
and selected "check updates".  The usual dialog box appeared and it
started checking for updates.  A text box then appeared entitled "Could
not download all repository indices" with the following text:

Failed to fetch
ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/squeeze/contrib/i18n/Translation-en.bz2  Could not connect passive socket. [IP: 64.50.233.100 21]

Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones
used instead.


Are these servers still available or do I have a problem on my end?

Thanks,
