deb http://security.debian.org/ stable updates

life is nice :). Is there RH, SuSE, etc. equivalents? We should post such
regularly to remind people.


Debian slink:
Version: 1:8.2.2p5-0slink1.1

Debian potato on PPC:
Version: 1:8.2.2p5-7

Debian potato on x86:
Version: 1:8.1.2-5

Except I'm not running dns on any of my debian boxen :).

ciao,
