I've been having problems with master.us.finkmirrors.net, too. Switching to another mirror works.

I still can't get the selfupdate working, after more than 2
weeks and I'm getting very frustrated.  Here's what I get:

/usr/bin/sudo /sw/bin/fink  selfupdate -rsync

### execution of rsync failed, exit code 10
Failed to fetch the timestamp file from the rsync server:
rsync://master.us.finkmirrors.net/finkinfo/.  Check the error
messages above.


What can I do to fix this problem?



Do you have a firewall at work and/or at home?

Or simply rename this /sw/fink/TIMESTAMP.tmp file with

mv TIMESTAMP.tmp TIMESTAMP.tmp.old and see if this helps. I had the
same problem some time ago and this did the trick for me. Two days
later I read about troubel in finks mirror net mabye it is again so
but I doubt it I today sucessfully updated fink and installed a
package.
