Oops! I forgot part of the message the first time! I'll try again...
Hi all,
I am having a difficult time adding a source that is an ftp source. I
can add http sources no problem. Someone earlier suggested that maybe
this was due to the ftp servers being overcrowded, but I can put in the
url for the ftp site in a browser and view the directories, etc. I
usually get an error message like the following:
>>>>>Forgotten part..
ftp://public.ftp.planetmirror.com/pub/mandrakelinux/devel/10.0/i586/Mandrake/base/hdlist1.cz
...retrieving failed: curl: (7) Connect failed
>>>>>
It doesn't seem to matter what time of day I try (Mountain Time Zone in
US). I have tried at 6:00 am local time to 6:00 pm local time and get
the same error.
I am behind a firewall but I don't have problems downloading, etc. via
ftp sites other than ones I am trying to set up as urpmi sources. Any
ideas?
Thanks! and sorry if this is a bother.
