Seems that they doesn't have full mirror archives... isn't it? Here from Spain (outside rediris) I like to use ftp.doc.ic.ac.uk/pub/Mirrors/ftp.debian.org wich is great for me, maybe no for you (what country is .il?) This is a quick search of mirrors that have ftp.debian.org with archie: Host ftp.ms.mff.cuni.cz (195.113.19.66) Location: /MIRRORS Host ftp.cosy.sbg.ac.at (141.201.2.108) Location: /ftp/pub/mirror Host ftp.task.gda.pl (153.19.253.204) Location: /mirror Host ftp.flashnet.it (194.247.160.5) Location: /pub Try also with this, use the ping command it may be quite informative, eg: ping somewhere.com <to end type Control and C) and compare the average from different sites... > BTW: What is the contrib directory? I think that are packages from people that are not "debian developpers" and are not "supported".... or maybe I'm wrong... I hope this helps, regards, Ulisses - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Computers are useless. They can only give answers."
