It does this nomatter what I set PKG_CLIENT_TIMEOUT or PKG_TIMEOUT_MAX to. It's been doing it for two days. I can't seem to download anything. The box has no network problems. I can list and search on pkg.opensolaris.org without problem. Perhaps it's not network related, given the "Read error on tar stream message"?

Accessing opensolaris.org has been difficult for the past couple of days.

This morning I couldn't browse the web site at all. I can not even access the documentation on the site.

I'm cross posting this to website-discuss and pkg-discuss.

Still the same here - can't use any pkg commands - they all timeout with the "tar stream" error. I can see the pkg.opensolaris.org website but opensolaris.org is being intermittently very slow indeed (I'm in Switzerland). If I knew that this was just due to it all being overloaded with 2009.06 image-updates, I'd relax a little but it's very strange not to get even a byte of SUNWckr after trying several thousand times over two days ...
