This is off-topic, but I know there are a lot of folks here who use IBM's AlphaWorks to get the IBM JDK for Linux or other goodies. Maybe others have encountered what I have... The AlphaWorks server seems to dislike my host. All attempts to download to my PC stall after about 1.4KB. Choice of client doesn't matter - netscape, lynx, or lwp-download. But when I telnet to a box at my ISP, I can download from there without difficulty. Main difference, AFAIK, is that the latter download isn't trying to squeeze bits through a 56K pipe. Since this is OT, personal responses would be best and I'll summarize if anyone's interested. Maybe this note will even reach someone at IBM more responsive than the AlphaWorks webmaster :-).
