Ignore the errors for now....  everyone is being swamped with requests.
~ Most severs can only handle so much before they overload.
Best thing, keep trying... or try again later is about a month.

I have the same problem with FTP.  Eventually, the server takes far too
long and my client times out....  Luckily, my client is setup to restart
after about 10 minutes.  So, I'm getting everything only a little bit at
a time.  I'm hoping to have the ISOs before next week.

I'm behind a firewall, so Bittorrent is out of the question.  It locks
up on me with connecting to hosts.

I think what we need is an economical way to distribute the updates,
ISOs to the users.  I can't see having to do this every update / upgrade
with the quickly growing number of users.

Good Luck,
James Kosin
