Howdy. Trying to get DSL working with vpnc, either DSL 3.4 or DSL 4.2.4. On either one, I've got it installed on a hard drive, then enable apt-get, run "apt-get update" from a root Xshell, then run "apt-get install vpnc". I get the following:

Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package vpnc

That appears to occur on both the 3.4 and 4.2.4 versions.
deb < http://archive.debian.org/debian-archive/ > woody main contrib non-free

Any ideas? And, while I'm begging: I'd like for it to boot, start vpnc and rdesktop - is there a trick, or just read the debian HOWTOs? Thanks!

If it's not in woody, you can try sarge.
