when i got home from work my transfers had failed. you can't restart easily because the url's expire. i know there's probably better ways to assure you can keep resuming (they HAD something about using curl on the instant iso page before but it looks like its gone), but _MY GOD_, didn't they KNOW there was going to be a rush today?
and this rush is from all of their PAYING customers, who are supposed to be "getting it early" (they sent out notices letting us know how lucky we were). at this rate i _might_ have it just before i hits the ftp servers, and this is actually worse than being lumped in with the ftp masses, since i only have one server to choose from.
at this point, the rhn site says:
PLEASE NOTE: We are experiencing high volumes of traffic due to unprecedented demand for Red Hat Linux 9 ISOs. This is currently affecting our response time. Our engineering team is working to address this problem. Thank you for your patience. Feel free to send us questions or feedback.
i'm trying to download this for my work, using their rhn account. i have been considering whether to purchase for myself at home, and this is exactly not the way to get me to do it. i'm glad i didn't sign up just so that i could get it early (what their email was encouraging people to do.) THEN i would be fuming. as it is, i'm only whining :p
and for that i am sorry, but i was all psyched up for this, and i'm going nowhere fast... errrr slow. :)
maybe someone else is having better luck?
