After some path tweaking and configuration updates, I'm happy to report that I can now update both Debian and Ubuntu machines from the local area network instead of using the internet! I've even got the network install cd's working properly as well as hosting and booting the install cd's over a PXE server!

Thank you everyone for all of your help!

It seems I was a bit presumptuous on my last post ...

The Debian Network Install works perfectly! I am sad to say that I can't get the Ubuntu Network Install to work. When the installer gets to the part about checking the mirror, it stops and in another terminal it says that "mirror doesn't have any suite symlinks" and "mirror does not support the specified release (precise)". I attached a copy of the screenshot I took using Virtualbox to test this all with.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
