Debian 5.0 "Lenny" Available at VPSLink

We plan to provide backup storage functionality which should prove to be ideal for this type of scenario in the future, however, the best process I can recommend at this point would be to temporarily move your files to a trusted location and attempt an upgrade (with the fall-back plan of reinstalling your operating system template).

dpkg --list will generate a list of installed packages on your system to facilitate audit so you can mirror your setup after upgrading (may come in handy).

Having local backup storage will be excellent. I look forward to the announcement. And in the meantime, I will muddle through the upgrade and hope not to do a catastrophic recovery.

Thanks for your rapid responses.

I'm having a few network issues with a fresh Lenny template. It was a link-2 server that I recently upgraded (twice in 2 hours might I add) up to link-4. I then nuked the Etch installation I had and chose Lenny. Now comes the fun part.

I can SSH into the server from my other VPS (link-5). But, once inside, it cannot resolve hostnames, ping IP addresses, or anything really. Not in a major rush, but I have a ticket open. Any ideas?

Oh, and yes, I tried ping and ping6.

For any future reference, this issue was related to a problem with /etc/resolv.conf The support staff should be able to fix this in a jiffy
