That's what I thought, but wget picks up the files no problem. Specifically the mirrors I'm using are: http://mirrors.kernel.org/.. http://download.fedora.redhat.com/.. http://ftp.ens.utulsa.edu/.. > What makes you think keepalive is failing here? Well, as I said, it never has a problem downloading header.info, but it gives an error trying to download the very first header. # yum list updates ... TRY #1: http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/development/i386/headers/header.info RESULT = success (/var/cache/yum/development/header.info) ... TRY #1: http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/development/i386/headers/pango-0-1.3.5-1.i386.hdr EXCEPTION: [Errno 7] HTTP Error (BadStatusLine): ... # wget -S http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/development/i386/headers/pango-0-1.3.5-1.i386.hdr ... 1 HTTP/1.1 200 OK ... If the server were overloaded, wouldn't I see it give an error when getting header.info at least some of the time?
