Since

  • Lenny is EOLed
  • lenny security updates have been terminated on February 6th
  • lenny backports have been dicontinued on March 25th
  • lenny volatile has been discontinued with the release of its successor "squeeze"

the repositories have been moved to archive.debian.org - you may wish to update your repositories to match this:

deb http://archive.debian.org/debian/ lenny main non-free contrib
deb-src http://archive.debian.org/debian/ lenny main non-free contrib
# Volatile:
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-volatile lenny/volatile main contrib non-free
deb-src http://archive.debian.org/debian-volatile lenny/volatile main contrib non-free
# Backports:
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-backports lenny-backports main contrib non-free
# Previously announced security updates:
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-security lenny/updates main

I think you want to

gpg  --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net  --recv-keys DFD993306D849617

to avoid the "NO_PUBKEY" error.

The other answers didn't work for me - this worked:

mv /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.PREARCHIVE

From http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=95658, make new /etc/apt/sources.list with

# SOURCE: http://superuser.com/questions/404806/did-debian-lenny-repositories-vanish
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian/ lenny main non-free contrib
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-backports lenny-backports main
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-backports lenny-backports-sloppy main

Then

gpg  --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net  --recv-keys DFD993306D849617
apt-get update
