Jochen Thank you again for your help with this! Here's a thought. I am setting up an internet server as a training exercise, using the O'Reilly book referenced at the top of this thread. The server is only for training (to learn Debian and networking). Therefore, maybe I could install the version of Debian that was current in 2007 (when the book was written). Would that be "sarge"? Then, I'm guessing I wouldn't have to deal with this problem of obsolete packages. Once I've learned how to build an internet server without O'Reilly holding my hand, I could update to the current stable version of Debian. Assuming this makes sense, how would I get the sarge equivalent of debian-40r3-i386-netinst.iso? Again, thanks for your very valuable help!
