Hi all,
I'm trying to rebuild a pretty old server. For this, I need a copy of the CentOS 4.3 i386 DVD ISO, ideally. The torrent on the CentOS vault is not working... Does anyone have a copy of:
CentOS-4.3-i386-binDVD.iso (md5sum: ca5ccf17951f4b4ef0460c7847e0f2ac)
Kicking around? I'd be much obliged if I could get a copy. :)

I have a set of 4.3 *CDs* I bought way back when from Cheapbytes. Will this do?

The CD ISOs are available on the archive, I do believe. I had hoped to avoid merging the CDs into a http-accessible directory and merging the repos, if I can avoid it. I'll be installing as a Xen domU, so having a single ISO also makes it easier to just boot off of the one image, rather than needing to swap out mounted ISOs.
Very kind of you to offer though! :)

why not 4.latest?
4.8 is here both as a download and a torrent ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/pub/centos/4/isos/i386/

It's a very heavily modified, and quite old, machine. We're going to move away from it to a modern release, but until then, we don't want to risk breaking anything. For this reason, we want to stick to the 4.3 install on the current server.

I notice that the vault seems to consistently provide only CDs but not the DVD. Since the delta isos going from the DVD to the CDs are of negligible size (for example see the 13-Final/ and 14-Final/ subdirectories of http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/deltaisos/ ), it would probably be better to do it the other way around (DVD + DVD->CD disos). The only downside would be for people who only need a subset of the CDs having to use more bandwidth to get them, but most people nowadays probably prefer the DVD anyway (cheap DVD drives, virtual installs).

well yeah, the OP mentions looking in the vault and indeed the DVD iso is not there, only the DVD torrent (and CD isos).

Then just grab the CD iso's and make them into a DVD iso no ?

or am i missing something

Or drop the CD isos in an nfs-shared directory, burn the 1st one to boot from and do an nfs install - you don't need to merge them or anything like that - the installer knows how to deal with the iso files. But, I think you are being too cautious about versions here. The point of an 'enterprise' distribution is that you don't have any unpleasant surprises with updates within a major rev. They aren't always perfect, but a lot of effort has gone into making 4.8 not break things where 4.3 would have worked.
