Hi
RedHat have released updated versions of glibc (2.2.4-24) and openssh, 
so the rpm files you are trying to download will have been replaced. 
Look at the FILES file to see what it's trying to download, then check 
what's actually on the ftp site.

Try downloading the latest CVS version of IPCop, which I think already 
has this fixed. As IPCop is based on RedHat 7.2 it needs to be altered 
when new packages come out (unless you rewrite make.sh to do some fancy 
pattern matching to find the correct rpm to download).

ps. The make.sh file does explain about the IPCOP_FILE_CACHE variable.
