Infect, the same has been problem for me. It seems all the Linux vendor web sites (www.redhat.com, www.suse.com etc) curb the bandwidth for their distribution via ftp server for non registered users (read anonymous). When I tried to use mirror servers, it seems they normally tend to server their local community.
Only this link ftp://ftp.iso.caldera.com/pub/OpenLinux/3.1.1/Server/OpenLinux-3.1.1-server-CD1.iso seems to working for me (This is SCO Linux open server). Now even this distribution of 644 MB will take some time on my DSL connection. The download for RedHat 8 (ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub...) was more or less impossible, it is always full of max anon connection. Now what ? One thought comes to me is if efforts can be put together have a mirror distribution for major vendor for Indian community (Excuse me, if it is already their). Secondly, if it is possible to have a private circulation of distribution CDs for community peoples only.
