I find that the 0.1-ports is not mirrored at all, and if I want to go back to get any of the 0.1 distribution at kirk.bu.oz.au, the times are pathetic. Is there any chance we could get the distribution mirrored on archie.au ? What do the other Australian users of 386BSD think ? Also the documentation on mirrors that I do have (admittedly 17 Mar 92) states that ftp.ee.mu.oz.au is a mirror. That would have been ideal for users close to the Australian Gateway (munnari), but doesn't seem to mirror 386BSD (or Linux for that matter) any more. -- ________________________________________________________________________________ Tim Liddelow for(;;) fork(); Systems Programmer Centre of Advanced Technology in Telecommunications My brain on a bad day.
