Xen users - Jun 2012 - Error:bridge-utils are not installing

hi all,
I was following Xen beginners Guid. I downloaded , burnt on cd and installed
Debian squeeze
on 64 bit x86 machine. my problem is that i''m stuck at ''setup
the linux bridge '' step.
whenever I issue the command " aptitude install bridge-utils", its
output told me that there is no
package exist which could be matched with bridge-utils. I''ve checked
its networking. ping is working fine.
As I''m in LAN, I''ve configured eth0 properly. But
can''t understand why I''m not able to install bridge-utils?

Thanks

If you know for a fact you have internet access, I would check your
aptitute sources in /etc/apt/sources.list, it is possible the mirror you
are using went down temporarily.

Have aptitude refresh its sources with "aptitude update", then run a
search
"aptitude search bridge-" and see if you get anything.

I''ve done aptitude update and then aptitude search but same error
occured.
I guess there is some problem with mirrors in source.list. Actually I did not
configure 
package manager when installing debian. how can I correctly add mirror
site in source.list and which one? I ''ve attached source.list file.

further more I try to directly download. GUI is not available only command line
so I use wget
$ wget
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/b/bridge-utils/bridge-utils_1.4.orig.tar.gz

and got
ERROR 400: Bad Request

If you want to add mirrors manually:
http://www.debian.org/mirror/list

Using the format of:

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main

However, I clicked the link and the file downloaded just fine, if you got a
400 with wget, you may want to double back and check that you actually have
internet access from that machine again.

Maheen:

If you''re more familiar with RHEL/CentOS you could just follow Chapters
7 & 8 of theVirtualization Guide forRHEL5. It''s not as detailed as
the Xen Beginners Guide but "it just works". (I used the
Virtualization Guide last night to create my first instance of Xen on CentOS 5.7
[x86_64] - It was very simple.) You might need to refer to Chapter 2 of
theInstallation Guide for RHEL5 in order to make the installation tree
"accessible using one of the following network protocols: HTTP, FTP or
NFS." (Refer to the footnote at the bottom of Step #7 of Chapter 7.2,
"Creating guests with virt-manager" for more on this.)


Once you''ve got it installed, I recommend reading Chapter 25 of
theVirtualization Guideto learn the basics of creating/configuring/managing
VM''s from the CLI (using virsh).
