oh.  is /7/  supposed to be a symlink to /7.0.1406/   or a separate 
directory ?  it appears my mirroring of the mirror may be broken if its 
supposed to be a symlink.

in /7.0.1406/, I'm seeing files up to Feb 22.

fyi, I'm using...

$ more ~/lftp.sh
#!/bin/sh
echo "=========================================================" >> 
$HOME/lftp.log
date -R >> $HOME/lftp.log
/usr/local/bin/lftp -c 'open ftp://mirrors.sonic.net && lcd 
/mnt/zbig/mirror && mirror --continue --verbose=1 -x ia64 -x s390 -x 
s390x -x alpha -x SRPMS centos' >> $HOME/lftp.log

on a freebsd (freenas) box to do the mirror.
$ lftp --version
