I have just spent over 30 minutes trying every link/option on redhat.com
to download images from


I have also tried just about every mirror shown. I have setup an account and logged in and I keep on getting same message

Cannot access directory - cannot dowload ....

How in the world can I download a copy of RH LINUX 7.3?

Thanks;

Wow - I just tried them too and nothing seems to be working at RH or the mirror sites. Let me snoop somemore.
 
This one seemed to be working:

ftp://redhat.netnitco.net/pub/mirrors/redhat/redhat/redhat-7.3-en/iso/i386/
 
RhythmAce,

No luck!

I keep on getting same error message:

"An error occurred opening that folder on the ftp server. Make sure you have permission to access that folder"

Thanks;

Hmmm, I haven't tried it yet via ftp but It seems to work (actually started the download) with IE6 on Windows and Mozilla on linux. If you're using ftp, do you have it setup to use your e-mail as password? You could use http but the problem with that is if something bad happens during the download, you can't resume the transfer.
 
Actually, I simply log on and then follow the download
links.

How can I check what (if anything) is ftp doing as it
attempts to connect (WIN2000 SERVER)?

I notice that it shows Anonymus as user name. I have closed all IEs and opened them again. I am logged in as admin ...

Thanks;

Jose

Hey guys!

I finally was able to download RPMs and burn images on CDROM. Further more, I successfully installed RH 7.3 on my Compaq Proliant 7000 Server using 3100ES Raid controller.

This baby installed like a dream ... Of course, being my first linux install, I was very pleased.

I now need to figure out where do I go from here. Keep an eye out for my posts, they are coming like a South Florida rain ... :)

Thanks;
