I'll give you a tip right now:  Use google to do that instead.  You
could have saved a lot of trouble by making your last keyword on a
google search site:debian.org .  This would have limited google to
just machines that have a FQDN ending in debian.org instead of the
whole intarweb.

A functional, working understanding of your favorite search engine
goes a long way in this day and age, whether you're looking for
today's news or help with KDE.  Google makes it easy: If you use their
advanced search options, you can see what special keywords you can use
to avoid wasting time clicking around the advanced search form in the
future.
