Thanks Paul - it was there and the up2date gui did list those sources 
where the repo files indicate that it should.  I have noticed when I 
launch up2date I get a shield in my tray and I do get recent upgrades 
listed.  However, when I use the up2date tray icon (right click) to 
check for updates, the shield does not appear.  I wonder if it is 
actually getting through the firewall to check.  System did not appear 
to find upgrades yesterday when lauching up2date did.
