I ran the following command to install the open jre

$apt-get install openjdk-6-jre

The package manager throws error "404". This is surprising I am able to ping to the server using the IP and I am able to install other packages. Is there something wrong? Any help would be appreciated. (BTW I am installing this on a Rackspace VM)

Thank you. Appreciate it. It went through. How silly. I should have realised it. Not surprising people didn't find it worthy of answering!
