    apt-get update error

    hello, i tried running apt-get update but it gave me errors and died, so i tried running netselect-apt and i replaced my sources.list, but the new file only had one mirror, so i added a few more and now i have this
    Code:
    # the main Debian packages.  Uncomment the deb-src line if you
# want 'apt-get source' to work with most packages.
#deb http://ftp3.nrc.ca/debian/ stable main contrib non-free
# deb-src http://ftp3.nrc.ca/debian/ stable main contrib non-free

# the non-US Debian packages.  Uncomment the deb-src line if you
# want 'apt-get source' to work with non-US packages.
deb http://debian.teleglobe.net/non-US/ stable/non-US main contrib non-free
# deb-src http://debian.teleglobe.net/non-US/ stable/non-US main contrib non-fre
e
deb ftp://mirror.direct.ca/pub/linux/debian/ stable main
deb ftp://debian.yorku.ca/debian stable main
    and that doesn't work either...
    i get this error

    The ftp://debian.yorku.ca appear to not be available. You need to comment them out of /etc/apt/sources.list and perhaps replace them with other entries.
