To: hackers@freebsd.org Date: Fri, 17 Oct 1997 20:03:25 +0100 (MET) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL23] Content-Type: text Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi, I have been trying for a couple of days to fetch 2.2.5-BETA but with no luck. ftp.freebsd.org is practically unusable from here, as always during weekdays. But it seems that mirrors have serious problems as well: ftp.{uk|fr}.freebsd.org and probably others seem to have only a tree of empty directories under 2.2.5-BETA. Furthermore, the symlink to XF86331 is broken and no alternate server I have found carries it. Is there something which confuses mirrors, or what ? At the moment I am slowly downloading from ftp.jp.freebsd.org but guess there might be a closer & faster place in europe... any suggestion ?
