Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation? I am pretty sure that I have a hacker on our
network
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)? I have tried to change the configurations based on what I
have found online and have been unable to.
   * What was the outcome of this action? nothing has happened
   * What outcome did you expect instead? I would  like someone to help me
figure out what I can't get this a-hole off my network

Hi,

please show us the complete output of apt – not just the error message
or even worse just paraphrasing the message. This bugreport is otherwise
not actionable and would need to be closed.

As a first semi-random suggestion: Ensure that your system has the right
date and time set. I know multiple people who have accidentally set
their computer to the wrong day while looking up dates in the calendar.


Best regards
