For the past few days, I couldn't update our apt-sources on Debian 5.0 (lenny). I get the following errors.

W: Failed to fetch http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/main/binary-amd64/Packages  404 Not Found [IP: 130.89.148.12 80]

W: Failed to fetch http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/contrib/binary-amd64/Packages  404 Not Found [IP: 130.89.148.12 80]

W: Failed to fetch http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/non-free/source/Sources  404 Not Found [IP: 130.89.148.12 80]

How do I fix this problem?

Edit:

My current sources are:

# Debian Lenny
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ lenny main non-free contrib  
deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ lenny main non-free contrib  

# Debian Lenny Non-US
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US lenny/non-US main contrib non-free  
deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US lenny/non-US main contrib non-free

# Debian Lenny Security
deb http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main contrib non-free
