I note that a friend of mine is the owner etc of some of those, which is a puzzle because he doesn't have an account on this machine, nor can I give him one in view of my firewalling from the outside. So I have a certified case of NDI how they got that owner:group attached. They were downloaded by me, as root, using gftp since it can just keep hammering a slow site till it gets it all. And most of redhats machines can be considered as somewhere between slow and really slow, often dropping well below 3k a second on a 90k a second dsl connection here, or just plain stopping, after 45 seconds of which gftp disconnects & retrys. That makes trying to grab an iso pretty frustrating at times. I'm only a state away, so to use the closest mirror means either duke or redhat themselves. Theres one in Pittsburgh, but its connections are usually all used up. I think its limit is 15 or some such. :( -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
