Try ftp.cse.buffalo.edu. Their message says they welcome
ftp Redhat installs. Maybe the other sites do not.
PS: this list does not really like RTF messages. They are
unreadable to most, and a huge bandwidth and disk space
waster to all. I think Outlook can turn off RTF on a per
addressee basis. Thanks :-)
