Sure, but: - you have to manually configure several sources - the downloads are not concurrent (if for example the current server doesn't have enough bandwidth to fill mine) Regards, Andrei -- Offtopic discussions among Debian users and developers: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Our job is to deliver video files and we have storage available. I just convinced my boss that to let me use the available space to put some ISO, as I have been using GNU/Linux for 10 years and favor opensource softwares. So the download platform is here and available, it is faster than bittorrent, if you want ot get some iso fast just use it!

Debian ISOs available for very fast download
Hi, I work for a young company who developed a fast download platform for huge files (we mix central servers and pear to pear). I convinced my managers to put some ISO files in the platform and leave them available free of charge. So if you have users interested to download ISO very fast feel free to give the download links. Our webpage for Debian : http://linux-iso.voddnet.com/distribution.php?d=debian The download links (you can put on any webpage) : CD1 Debian 5.0 Lenny i386 - http://central-c-001.voddnet.com/command/servlet/Command?type=3client=4auto=trueoeuvre=497 CD1 Debian 5.0 Lenny amd64 - http://central-c-001.voddnet.com/command/servlet/Command?type=3client=4auto=trueoeuvre=498 DVD1 Debian 5.0 Lenny i386 - http://central-c-001.voddnet.com/command/servlet/Command?type=3client=4auto=trueoeuvre=437 Netinst Debian 5.0 Lenny i386 - http://central-c-001.voddnet.com/command/servlet/Command?type=3client=4auto=trueoeuvre=505 Netinst Debian 5.0 Lenny amd64 - http://central-c-001.voddnet.com/command/servlet/Command?type=3client=4auto=trueoeuvre=506 We can change and put the ISO you wish, as long as we still have enough disk space on our machines ;) Any remark is welcomed.
