Yes, thanks. I have encountered both vi and the debian mirror list :)

I run many debian VMs and often find myself wanting to switch mirrors. I 
do not want to fire up a web browser, or manually have to type in 
mirrors, which often results in a typo. I have been playing with using 
my own repo, and using apt-proxy and now apt-cacher-ng.

I have always idly thought there must be something obvious I am missing, 
dpkg-reconfigure apt-get would be my first assumption, which of course 
did not work.

There is a template in /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/sources.list so I can 
always grab that if I want to go back to defaults.

Jeremy
