I'm not sure about if somebody has an FTP site set up or not:  if they do,
hopefully they'll post it here!

Hmmm... I am using Squid as a web proxy and DansGuardian to filter content,
but I've never had it do anything like this before.

Interesting.  Using curl to try to download this on my powerbook, which is
going out over airport, it sits there trying to get it (currently at 1.5mins
and counting).  On my linux workstation, it's instant.

Time to fiddle a little bit more.  Thanks.

On a side note, is there an FTP site that carries the fink repository or can
it only be hit from that us.dl.sourceforge.net server via http?  Since I use
fink on three machines, maybe it would make more sense to have a local
mirror I could grab via rsync or wget or something.

Thanks again for helping direct me in the right place.
