Hello,

rebuilt a server using 8.04.2 and ran apt-get update to update/upgrade 
server to 8.04.4.  I get the following:

w: failed to fetch 
http://security.ubuntu.com/dists/hardy-security/multiverse/i18n/translation-en_us.bz2
unable to connect to security.ubuntu.com ip address x.x.x.x:80

i typed the following:

sudo apt-get check
sudo apt-get update -f
sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade

grep apt:

ps ax | grep apt
/usr/lib/apt/methods/http:

i killall processes and there is no manager running in the background.

Never had an issue such as this before pls. advise?  I would like to 
send an email directly the ubuntu security team. 


Thanks
