I use this on sunsite.uio.no and also these days with "ftp problems" with 
rsync sunsite.uio.no works pretty well, you can put a script like that in 
/etc/cron.hourly (or use /var/spool/cron if you want more flexibility) (it 
recovery from partial downloads)

#!/bin/sh
rsync -av --partial --progress --stats --delete --exclude=7.2beta/ 
sunsite.uio.no::Mandrake-devel /MIRROR/Mandrake-devel
