That is S messed up - some heads should roll!

Thank god I keep dual copies of Cooker from two different Rsync sources.

This is so unprofessional - an reflects very poorly on MandrakeSoft if
the primary RSync source is so unreliable.

Major Bummer.

   Don't know what you mean. Everything seems normal
 
  Got the problem too. Both office and home mirrors, with 5 Go files,
  have bee wiped. I'm using sunsite.uio.no with an rsync --delete.
  Perhaps the files have been unavailable for a few hours, and then
  rsync locally wiped mine, to keep a badly mirrored local cooker.
 
 Well..., what can I say...
 
 It happened AGAIN

Most of the times rsync rocks, but when this mess happens it means low 
bandwith users have to wait many, many hours to recover. I too have to keep a 
second copy of the whole cooker tree because of the unreliable mirrors.

I'm sure they are working out their problems, I just wish that they refuse
