You're missing the URL for the main repository. Do this:
Code:
$ echo "deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian lenny main contrib non-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
$ echo "deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US lenny/non-US main contrib non-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get install openssh-server

This will add 2 main repositories, update the package list, and install openssh-server. Note: the '$' is not part of the command line but indicates the prompt.

Thanks I'll be able to deal with that this evening, and I'll post back with the results. I'm curious, does the fact that sources.list was missing information suggest something went wrong with my install, or is adding this information as you describe a normal part of the process?
