It seems almost everyone's gotten this error at one point or another, with the sheer number of threads about it as evidence. The issue is there's many causes of and solutions to this problem. Being the noob that I am, I started opening .conf files here and deleting lines there, and not only have I not found the solution yet, but now I've got a bunch of files which probably don't work anymore. There's something to be said about making backups when you don't know what you're doing, that's for sure. Since this is my first time setting up a Linux server and I'm not really making use of it at the moment, I want to run BOINC. However, my screen is being flooded by errors like this: Err <a href="http://us.archive.ubuntu.com">http://us.archive.ubuntu.com</a> intrepid-updates/main Sources Cannot initiate the connection to <a href="http://us.archive.ubuntu.com:80">us.archive.ubuntu.com:80</a> (91.189.88.45). - connect (101 Network is unreachable) [IP: 91.189.88.45 80] W: Failed to fetch <a href="http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid-updates/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz">http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid-updates/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz</a> Cannot initiate the connection to <a href="http://us.archive.ubuntu.com:80">us.archive.ubuntu.com:80</a> (91.189.88.45). - connect (101 Network is unreachable) [IP: 91.189.88.45 80] I was working on it all morning, but I honestly couldn't give you guys a list of everything I changed to try to get this working. What are your thoughts, all? I'm pretty new at this, but I feel it will be worth the effort (and fun!) to learn Ubuntu Server. <Insert 'boohoo I'm going back to Windoze' here>
