I looked at the archive and it looks like there is a newer version of the openssh-server 5.8...

Am I doing something wrong? I have installed openssh in the past using the atp-get install openssh-server and it worked. Now it does not.

run this before you run that command:

sudo apt-get update

to ensure that your index is up-to-date, otherwise you may request packages that have been superseded, and thus removed from the remote machine.

Can you help with this problem?
