This page contains information regarding Ubuntu apt mirrors for users connected to Australian ISPs. For downloading CD images (.iso ) see http://ubuntu.com/download.

The following is an /etc/apt/sources.list template for Ubuntu. Replace <mirror> with one of the mirrors listed below and <version> with your distribution name (dapper, gutsy, hardy, intrepid, jaunty, karmic, lucid, maverick etc)

## All officially supported packages, including security- and other updates
deb <mirror> <version> main restricted
deb <mirror> <version>-security main restricted
deb <mirror> <version>-updates main restricted

## The source packages (only needed to recompile existing packages)
#deb-src <mirror> <version> main restricted
#deb-src <mirror> <version>-security main restricted
#deb-src <mirror> <version>-updates main restricted

## All community supported packages, including security- and other updates
deb <mirror> <version> universe multiverse
deb <mirror> <version>-security universe multiverse
deb <mirror> <version>-updates universe multiverse

## The source packages (only needed to recompile existing packages)
#deb-src <mirror> <version> universe multiverse
#deb-src <mirror> <version>-security universe multiverse
#deb-src <mirror> <version>-updates universe multiverse
