I'm trying to create a local copy of CentOS-5.6 repo. The corporate network blocks a lot of outgoing ports including rsync. The ones I know that work include http{,s}, ftp and ssh. Given this limitation, what is the best way to get a local copy besides the following?
wget -c -m -np -D vault.centos.org -R '*=?' http://vault.centos.org/5.6/
The connection gets refused after a while. Is it because the server blocks such "mirroring" activities? My download speed is around 60KB/s.
