Hello everyone,
I hope you will be able to help me here because it is the first time in in

Hi guys,
I am running testing on my laptop (sources.list has testing everywhere).
Since Squeeze is stable, shouldn't be the codename shown with

On my system it still shows Squeeze. I'm just wondering if this is
normal or just on my system ?
Cheers

Thanks, Brian, I'll try installing Lenny and then upgrading. If I still have
trouble with Squeeze, then I'll have to stick with Lenny until I buy a somewhat
newer computer that doesn't have problems with the Debian Squeeze CD.

Hi,
The addr field of the output from utmpdump contains the ip address of the
connection. This is obtained by calling inet_ntoa on the ut.ut_addr field
(as depicted in the code below, utmpdump.c, Release 2.88). But in case the
ip address is an IPV6 address, the output contains the wrong ip address
