Try this maybe? http://security.debian.org/debian-security/ The one you're currently using redirects to an informational text page. This second one from my apt-get sources opens to the kind of downloadable packages you might be seeking. One of the things I learned early on with ALL Linux distributions was to play with visiting the repository pages in person to get a feel for their layouts. On rare occasions, I've used that method to download problem packages when all other methods of installation were failing. *shhhh* :) Cindy :) -- Cindy-Sue Causey Talking Rock, Pickens County, Georgia, USA * runs with birdseed *
