Hi All, I am using the following how-to to install postfix: http://howtoforge.com/virtual_users_and_domains_with_postfix_debian_etch I am running into this error and not sure why. On step 3 below: 3 Apply The Quota Patch To Postfix cd /usr/src apt-get source postfix I get this error after running "apt-get source postfix" commad: root@mx1:/usr/src# apt-get source postfix Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done E: Unable to find a source package for postfix I ran all previous commands o.k... However, I noticed I was getting the following error messages below when I ran the apt-get install in the first step to download files... The errors was related to connection time out as shown below Failed to fetch http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/python2.4/python2.4_2.4.4-3_i386.deb Connection timed out [IP: 64.50.238.52 80] Err http://http.us.debian.org etch/main python2.4 2.4.4-3 Err http://http.us.debian.org etch/main libmysqlclient15-dev 5.0.32-7etch1 Err http://http.us.debian.org etch/main libssl-dev 0.9.8c-4 Err http://http.us.debian.org etch/main libdb4.3-dev 4.3.29-8 I went back and apt-get install for each above files and it ran fine and continued with install.... Would appreciate any help/suggestions to fixing problem. Joe
Here my sources.list: Code: deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian etch main contrib non-free deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib deb-src http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib I had some questions/concerns about sources.list... I am not entirely sure its correct or the best setup for me based on my location (US/NYC).... If you can advised on this would be great. I do get a lot of time outs and sometimes errors when doing apt-get install to install sw. joe
Add Code: deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian etch main contrib non-free to that file, run Code: apt-get update , and try again.
