But after I remove the 'testing' entries and run apt-get update,
don't the testing entries remain?

Include the testing line in apt.sources
and update the packages and then type
# apt-get install ssh/testing
This will then only install the specific version of ssh and dependancies
from testing.

What you want is:
# apt-get -d install packagename
This will only download the package and store it in
/var/cach
Thank You!
(PS: It's not too OT as I don't want to try upgrading everything
that works to 'testing')

Thanks to all that replied.
I know that under dselect I can "hold" various packages.
And if I edit the sources.list I can add a set of 'testing' entries.
I suppose I can do the .deb download and installs myself but I was
hoping for some manner in which I could use something like dpkg to
specify

Don't do what I did and just install the testing deb. Heather told me the
