This seems because lenny is no more supported and as the website
doesn't know any distribution of that name (anymore), it expects lenny
to be a package name, too.

Lenny is now in the Debian archive of end-of-life releases on
http://archive.debian.org/.

The file you're looking for is now at
http://archive.debian.org/debian/pool/main/b/base-files/base-files_5lenny11_i386.deb

You can also add the following lines to your sources.list to get
packages for Lenny through apt instead of manually downloading them:

deb http://debian.ethz.ch/debian-archive/debian/ lenny main
deb-src http://debian.ethz.ch/debian-archive/debian/ lenny main

I though recommend to upgrade to Squeeze on the long run as Lenny has
no more security support.
