To wit: USA: quintex.com is down, both sites. Ping returns zero packets. Sweden: http://grass.milthi.me System is up, but server won't answer. Czech Republic: http://grass.fsv.cvut.cz System down; ping returns zero packets. Romania: http://grass.unibuc.ro System down; ping returns zero packets. Korea: http://pinus.gntech.ac.kr/grass Works Japan: http://wgrass.media.osaka-cu.ac.jp/grassh/ Works India: http://wgbis.ces.iisc.ernet.in/grass/ Works Indonesia: http://grass.gis.co.id Site redirected to a shopping site, http://www.dealdiskon.com/ (The Grass site has the correct address, somebody is playing games.) China: http://grass.osgeo.cn/ Works South Africa: http://grass.mirror.ac.za Opens a page of links to many mirrors. The grass.mirror.ac.az link re-opens the links page. the ftp://grass.mirror.ac.za link works. Namibia: http://grass.polytechnic.edu.na/ Works The wiki site also works. Though I said that some of the systems were down, it's very possible that there's been an Internet hiccup of some sort. It's not like this sort of thing hasn't happened before. Hope this helps, or at least adds a few data points. --Dale -- "The attitude of 'Oh, you want it should work?
