I'm sure you have mirrors in the eastern US, but googling for them only turned up the commercial offerings, often priced at $129.50 a month to host /my/ project. So thats way above my paygrade on S.S., and TBT, I host what I want to serve from this machine. And I still use maybe 20% of the bandwidth I am allowed per $60 month on a 10megabyte connection. URL? For eastern US? Many Thanks for your time, Sebastian Andrzej Siewior. -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
