[PLUG] Debian GNU/Linux "woody" apache/perl problems.

[Richard Langis Jr.]

For what it's worth, I have a cron job that runs 'apt-get update' every 
day, and 'apt-get -d dist-upgrade' (-d = download only) every sunday 
morning (while I'm still asleep and not using my limited bandwidth).

So far it's worked quite well.  If I had more bandwidth available, I'd 
dist-upgrade every day.  'stable' users should also consider ading the 
security url to sources.list:

deb http://security.debian.org/ potato/updates main contrib non-free
