I have a Ubuntu 12.04 Server without GUI but yesterday i wanted to update Netatalk to 2.2.2 but when i added the source to the repository this happend, then i reverted the changes i made, but the error still stays.

This is the problem and i alrdy tried changing to another mirror but still fails time after time it just tells me this.

W: Failed to fetch http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise-       updates/universe/i18n/Translation-en  Something wicked happened resolving 'nl.archive.ubuntu.com:http' (-5 - No address associated with hostname)
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

This is what happens if i do a sudo apt-get update

do you have the same problem with the main server? – Marius Balaban May 3 '12 at 8:55
looks like a DNS issue to me ... No address associated with hostname – sulaweyo May 3 '12 at 9:43
this is my main server, and how can i fix this DNS issue? – Snake May 3 '12 at 12:32
Have you retried, today. I had similar issues when testing 12.04beta on a netbook. However, have not experienced this with 12.04 server (to date). – david6 May 4 '12 at 9:19
