I have installed Debian 6.02 and need want to add opennms. The directions say to add it to the /etc/apt/sources.list.d repository, which I can get to, but I cannot figure out how to write to it. So how can i write to it? Thank you in advance.

Ubuntu addict and loving it
You would normally add it too the sources.list
gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
the souces.list.d is usually a directory .....
Although there is this thread on it and if the list goes in that directory it has to end in .list

To add what 23d said, open you Run dialog (Alt+F2) and enter...
... navigate to /etc/apt/sources.list.d, create a file named opennms.list, copy/paste the deb sources into it, save the file and close Nautilus and your text editor. Add the signing key by running in a terminal...Code:gksu nautilus... then update your sources and install opennms, again in a terminal...Code:wget -O - http://debian.opennms.org/OPENNMS-GPG-KEY | sudo apt-key add -Code:sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install opennms

Thank you both of you. I got it installed, although I have to run as root for it to run.
