Installing jdk?

[A. Jorge Garcia]

>> Hello Fine LUG Members,
>>
>> I just had a server crash and burn after running 24x7 for 10 years in
>> the middle of my Computer Science class.  So, as a temporary fix, I
>> took a Student Station that already had the 64bit Ubuntu 10.04 
Desktop
>> Edition running and quickly installed openssh-server and setup new 
ssh
>> logins.
>>
>> Then I find that jdk is not installed  So, I tried installing
>> openjdk-6-jdk only to get an error message about the file was not 
found.

> With apt-get install or with Synaptic?

with aptitude....

>> Then I went ubuntu.packages.com to search for this file and was
>> directed to secure.ubuntu.com/ubuntu to the directory pool/main/o/
>> openjdk but the file would not download.
>>
>> So, what am I doing wrong?  Please help!

> Try another mirror?

TIA,
