[OFFTOPIC] Installing debian packages without CD

Hey,

Just looking for a little installation help.

I have Debian Etch installed using a NetInst disc.

When I run the command to install all the packages:

Code:

apt-get install $(cat ./docs/Debian/debian-packages-etch)

I get a message telling me I need to insert the Debian installation CD. I don't have access to this machine anymore as it's co-located in a data center. How do I tell it to download and install those packages instead of getting them from the CD?

Thanks
