Let's take an example: The apt mirror list. The total list is Primary: http://bindist.finkmirrors.net/bindist asi-JP: http://fink.sodan.ecc.u-tokyo.ac.jp/bindist/bindist eur-DE: http://bindist.ber.de.eu.finkmirrors.net eur-NL: http://ams.nl.eu.finkmirrors.net/bindist nam-US: http://sjc.ca.us.finkmirrors.net/bindist nam-US: http://msn.wi.us.finkmirrors.net/mirrors/fink/finkbindist/bindist The rule fink imposes appears to be: If you are European, but not in Germany or Holland, then you must choose the primary mirror, which is in Cupertino. This is not reasonable. At least the mirrors from the same continent should be available. -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
