(I've truncated that slightly--you get the point.)
I've run "fink scanpackages" and "fink configure" and searched the faq and the archives for the list and I really really suspect it's a stupid configuration thing, but I can't figure it out. By the way, my setup is computer -> router -> DSL and I've tried "fink configure" both with no proxy settings and with the router's address as a proxy. I made sure that "Use passive ftp mode" is switched on in the network tab.

So, given that I promise that I've endlessly searched the documentation and tried everything that I think should work, would someone kindly tell me what totally obvious thing I'm doing wrong?



Admittedly the HTTP error number is different, but

http://fink.sourceforge.net/faq/usage-fink.php?phpLang=en#four-oh-three

addresses a similar problem.

It's not on your end, in any case.
