I'm using debian lenny on a wireless network behind a linksys ADSL router. just using a text interface (bash). I am using a manual tcp/ip configuration with fixed ip.
I tried apt-get install openssh-server and i get the following output.
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package openssh-server is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package openssh-server has no installation candidate
This is the second time I tried, The first time I tried I think the message may have been different. maybe package not found at the end sorry but I'm not certain about that, didn't write down the message.
I eventually found my way to /etc/apt.sources.list and noticed http://security.debian.org/ I could ping this address no problem.
So I am not sure where to go from here. I actually have another thread in the tcp/ip forum where I question whether my tcp/ip configuration is complete.
