On Linode (Ubuntu 16.10), after enabling UFW firewall via
sudo ufw allow OpenSSH
sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw allow in "Apache Full"
(though I'm not completely sure the firewall setup is the source of my issues...)
sudo apt-get update is giving me the following message:

I've tried sudo apt-get dist-update to no avail (also gives 404 errors).
I've also done unset http_proxy and unset https_proxy;
apt-get -o Acquire::ForceIPv4=true update - it still fails when using IPv4
I can ping 8.8.8.8 just fine.
...nothing's worked yet. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?
