I'm finding my way slowly with Ubuntu Server, now I have a minor problem with apt-get. It wants me to put the Ubuntu Server CD into the machine which, since it's in the garage, is a bit of a pain.
Can I force it *not* to use the CD but to always got to the internet to download packages I want to install? If so, how?
No idea about Ubuntu, but for Debian you'd edit /etc/apt/sources.list to only have references to the internet URLs rather than anything pointing to the CD. I'd be very surprised if Ubuntu have deviated from that.
