The subject was a bit unclear: my situation is: There are only two public yast source repository known in China and one of them is broken (trying to reach the responsible person) the other set up by us (ftp://opensuse.realss.cn/opensuse/)
I have a SuSE 10.2 installation, remote yast source code repository is set to opensuse.realss.cn. The client and server connection is not fast (5KB/s) but that's the fastest yast source repository this client can reach. Problem: we cannot install any software that has several magebytes. Usually it goes like this: after several hours the software is fully downloaded (progress of download reach 100%) and, I got a message "Curl error for: ftp://opensuse.realss.cn/opensuse/distribution/10.2/repo/oss/suse/i586/python-opengl-2.0.1.09-49.i586.rpm: Error code: Timeout reached Error message: Callback aborted I guess the reason could be, that for ftp there is a control connnection and data connection, perhaps control connection is broken because idle for too long time (to wait for data connection) and when data connection finishes, curl cannot return to control connection, thus this problem. I have no clue on how we can solve it: perhaps we can customize curl to behave differently? perhaps we can adjust vsftpd server, customize it to never drop control connection too easily? I am still digging into documents. But as we are business I don't have that much time RTFM (though I very like to RTFM when I have time). It would be great if some drop some lines of direct helpful message:) -- Zhang Weiwu Real Softservice http://www.realss.com +86 592 2091112 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
