so g.extension was working for you? is it GRASS 6.4.2? we've been looking for feedback on that; which way of calling g.extension? from the Terminal command line or from the wxGUI menu? see https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/854 > ...

Unfortunately the osgeo servers are a little bit streched these days, a victim of their own sucess. For me 0700 GMT +/- 1 hour is often bad, so if it is slow then I just go do something else for a while and try again later. Yesterday was unusual though, I have for the first time seen temporary "unable to connect to server" in the last week or two, but usually it isn't that bad. regards, Hamish _______________________________________________ grass-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
