Each of the cited servers hosts multiple mirrors.  They use the HTTP1.0
'host' header to determine what content to show.  Depending in your
tool, setting the host header may be easy.

For wget, for example, you can force a host header in with
--header="Host: debian.slimdevices.com"

As one of the arguments.  Use an IP number in the url and that argument
and it should work.  (Wget will go to the IP in the url, but pass the
Host header onto the server.)
