Installing Debian Lenny (D4)

Reading through the networking page took quite a long time as they covered a lot of material there. It was more information than steps for you to set-up the networking in Debian. They pointed to other tutorials that covers setting up a Proxy Server etc.

They referred to a program called "mtr" that is similar to traceroute, however it wasn't installed on my system and a search on apt-cache came up empty. So I searched online and found that there is such a program, just that my package sources in source.list was not set-up to find it.

Thus I added these lines in the source.list file and then it worked:


deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny main
deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny main
That's all for now, signing off
