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.
I use rsync as described at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/mirror/en/sn-planning-and-setup.html
It works great and I have FC5, FC6 and am working on F7, 32 and 64 bit on my home server now.
