How exactly is one meant to use the rsync facility offered by several of the mirrors? I tried clicking on "rsync" (as opposed to "http" or "ftp") on a couple of mirrors in the list, and was told in both cases that the protocol was not supported. I have rsync installed on the machine in question, and in fact use it all the time. Actually, I found it was not in fact necessary, as when I killed my download after it had been stalled for 9 hours, and started again from a different mirror, I was asked if I wanted to resume or start again, and when I opted to resume it seemed to work fine. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
