Hello all,
I have a been a linux hobbyist for many years and I am just now actually learning it. A friend introduced me to Debian & Kali. I currently have Debian 9 installed. I am writing this message on a machine other than the one experiencing the error, so I know the description will be a bit light, but I think it is a simple /etc/apt/sources.list issue. I have already been in VI and commented out the CD-Rom, which helped with that portion of the error, but I still have Temporary failure issues, which my instinct says are incorrect links.
Here is the error gist:
Err:1 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian stretch InRelease
Temporary failure resolving 'ftp.us.debian.org'
Err:2 http://security.debian.org/debian-security stretch/updates InRelease
Temporary failure resolving 'ftp.us.debian.org'
Err:3 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian.org/debian stretch-updates InRelease
Temporary failure resolving 'ftp.us.debian.org'
Hope this is enough information. Everything network-related works fine, except for apt-get. I can't update or install any packages.
Thanks for your help,
JB33

Re: apt-get update : Temporary Failure resolving 'ftp.us.deb
Post your sources.list. The first 2 look ok and resolve fine here but the 3rd one looks wrong and won't resolve. Usually a temporary failure will be fine if you wait a bit.

http://deb.debian.org/debian/
just click on the link above and it should take you to the debian mirror that is closest to you in terms if network availability
typically instructions are now included on each mirror as well.
You should post your
/etc/apt/sources.list
file because both your
http://security.debian.org/debian-security ( stretch-updates )
and
http://ftp.us.debian.org/ (debian.org) /debian stretch-updates
will not resolve until they are corrected
And we can't tell if there is something also wrong with the first entry until we see your sources.list file

I wish all failures were only temporary.
Nobody would ever ask questions If everyone possessed encyclopedic knowledge of the man pages.

Temporary failure resolving ... usually simply means either your Internet isn't connected, isn't working, or your networking has been changed and not able to connect.
What network interface are you using? Ethernet cable, wireless, both, something else?
Try ifconfig to see what's working or ip route.
