The files are huge, one of them over 100MB and will take a long time. If you are using up2date, the default download directory is /var/spool/up2date. Once you retrieve the files to the appropriate directory, then run up2date. It will recognize that you previously downloaded the files and use them. As far as a FTP client, I use gftp, but any ftp client that will allow restart should suffice. And I used mirrors.kernel.org for the download as I am located more towards the US West coast than the East coast, but you should be able to use any mirror site for the download. I would stay away from the main Fedora site as it has a heavier load than most of the mirror sites. > > James McKenzie > Looking forward to November 8th for more than one reason.
