Hi all,

I received an email this morning from one of my work servers with the results 
of it's overnight APT update attempt. Within the text of the report, it 
appears that I'm getting 404 messages from the mirror I've chosen 
(mirror.pacific.net.au). I've tried changing the mirror, but all the other 
sites I've tried (including ftp.debian.org) have the same problem. Have I 
missed something?

I've included the emailed text and my sources.list for your perusal. Any 
suggestions would be most welcome!

Lance
