No. Almost as bad? Time-Warner cable. But I suspect it's not them.
Yesterday was OK, today no. Also, for the 5.0 amd 4.5 releases, I was
able to download and share the stuff via torrent.
I guess they could have changed there blockings since then though.
I'm running a port scan right now. So far, http and rsync are the only
porst found open. The torrent file show port 6969 - but I don't know for
sure if that represents the source port or a port I'm supposed to use
because I don't have the layout of the torrent file. But I do see this
in the torrent file:
d8:announce39:http://torrent.centos.org:6969/announce13: ...
So I'm betting that's the source port.
Thanks for replying,
