So, from an infrastructure perspective... we do have http mirrors still. If you are using a metalink there's not any security problem using http, although there is a privacy one (anyone sniffing the traffic can see what you are downloading). We no longer have/support ftp mirrors in mirrormanager, we dropped them a while back. I don't know if this case uses a metalink? Does it? If we want to keep supporting FTP, we may have to test it locally as mirrormanager doesn't support it anymore. kevin
