Howdy -- sorry that you're having a problem with the software repository!

Can you paste in the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list file?

That will help us understand what's going on there. Thanks!

## Uncomment the following two lines to add software from Canonical's

Ah, it looks like there's actually two different entries for two different licenses there.

It looks like your active license is "5566052".

If that's the one you want to use, try commenting out these two lines here:

deb http://5563736:dYwJnG4Wqq@software.virtualmin.com/ubuntu/ virtualmin-xenial main
deb http://5563736:dYwJnG4Wqq@software.virtualmin.com/ubuntu/ virtualmin-universal main

Note that they reference a 5563736 license, which isn't currently active.

Let us know if that helps!
