The /etc/apt/auth file contains some default usernames/passwords for some of the apt repositories. Unfortunately, I accidentally deleted mine.

So, I tried to find it elsewhere and I even called Nokia and asked them. I had to spend 1/2 hour walking the 'support' employee through the process of copying the file off of the device so that she could e-mail it to me. After all that, she said she wouldn't be able to e-mail it herself, but would need to pass it on and I would probably get it by e-mail in a day. That was three days ago.

As a result of not having this file, one cannot get updates from the Nokia repositories.

Can some kind person please e-mail me their file so that I may move on with my life without having to flash my N900? I tried finding it in the SDK, but didn't find it.

Thanks in advance.
