I get the following:

The following packages have been kept back:
bind9-host dnsutils libbind9-30 libisccfg30 linux-image-server linux-server
openssh-client openssh-server
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 8 not upgraded.
root@server1:~# apt-get install $(cat ./docs/Ubuntu/ubuntu-packages-hardy)

Then I can't go to configure the other stuff that should pop up, the first time I tried this, it told me it couldn't find package Libperl (some version number)

Any ideas would be great, please be gentle, I am trying to learn linux.

Please do a

Quote:apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade

before running install
