Question Fixing Debian 5.0 source.list


Hello all,

i have a problem in a debian server 5.0, the source.list is not working. it is EOL sources and packages. but i need to fix the sources and install some packages.

lets say that upgrading to another version is not an option right now.

so please help.

Thanks in advance.
Jamil Isayyed.

I think it may actually be
Code:
deb http://archive.debian.net/debian/ lenny main contrib non-free
http://archive.debian.net/lenny/
