Install these packages without verification???

[cseg]

I just installed a fresh copy of ubuntu 6.10 server.

I just logged in for the first time and am doing an apt-get update/upgrade.

It is giving me the following WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated:
tar gnupg bind9 ... linux-image-2.6.17-10-server linux-server

I don't remember seeing this before.

What's going on with the repository? Is it under attack? Is it safe to install these packages?

Got the same thing for gnucash just now. Is it safe?
