I have had a similar problem since Friday connecting to linux.citylink.co.nz. I see that nz.archive.ubuntu.com has a CNAME ubuntu.citylink.co.nz I rang my ISP's (Snap) help line and the hell desk warrior could connect from his station to linux.citylink.co.nz but ssh'd into his home box to test which failed. He raised a trouble ticket for the techs to resolve. John is where you are attempting to connect downstream of the Christchurch City Network as I suspect the trouble lies there? Curiously www.citylink.co.nz works fine. Cheers Ross Drummond
