This brings me to my next question. I'm running Debian Lenny and have done so for several months. I don't see any new packages coming in since the formal production release of Lenny on Feb 14th. So how are people with Lenny getting these newer releases? I thought you had to go Unstable to get these. Is that what you did? My /etc/sources still shows Lenny Main, pretty much like what was set up when I installed back in October of '08. Thanks for the Debian help here.
