I've heard that the problem seems to be (mostly) with one rsync mirror in Germany They are trying to fix the problem there or take the mirror off line until fixed In the mean time he suggests limiting your emerge sync's to US mirrors (if you're in the US) by adding the line: SYNC="rsync://rsync.us.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage/" to the end of /etc/make.conf Those that choose not to add the line should note the mirror used for your sync and report that mirror if it causes problems. The mirror in question is NOT the rsync mirror listed on the Gentoo mirrors page -- Regards, Ernie 100% Microsoft and Intel free -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
