I'm really not trying to complain here, but just inform... Seems like about one third of the times I do an upgrade, it either bombs out with no data transferred or comes in painfully slow. At present, after about 10 minutes I have this on my screen as it creeps along Downloading http://osdn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/webadmin/webmin-1.260-1.noarch.rpm (9866118 bytes) .. Received 1024 bytes (0 %) Received 857088 bytes (8 %) Received 987136 bytes (10 %) Received 1759232 bytes (17 %) Received 1973248 bytes (20 %) Received 2733056 bytes (27 %) Received 2960384 bytes (30 %) Received 3744768 bytes (37 %) Received 3946496 bytes (40 %) Received 4685824 bytes (47 %) Received 4933632 bytes (50 %) Received 5730304 bytes (58 %) Received 5919744 bytes (60 %) This looks like an overload on sourceforge to me. I've heard they have been having some growing pains. Again, not to complain but just to inform. Best, John Hinton |

Hi John, This download is probably slow because Webmin is using the default sourceforge mirror site, osdn.dl.sourceforge.net . You can configure it to use a faster mirror in future by going to the Webmin Configuration module, clicking on Proxy Servers and Downloads, and selecting a closer mirror from the 'Preferred OSDN mirror for downloads' menu. - Jamie |

Hey Jamie, Thanks this fixed a complaint from one of our users as well. Apparently they were concerned the server was overloaded (ours not the download) one.

It sort of sounded like there was going to be a selection pulldown or something in the module. And if I understand this right, this will cause Webmin to attempt to use that selected mirror and if unavailable it will try another one? Also, I see beside default, UNC? Does this mean University of North Carolina? If so, that would be very close, but they do run slow many times. The price for being one of the first in the world, to serve to the world.

Gee... wouldn't you know it.. the only server I looked on didn't have the pull-down of mirrors.. the rest do. Odd as they are all on the same version. I must have something 'stuck' (wouldn't surprise me on that one installation) which didn't allow the update to the download/proxy module. Nevermind.. John Hinton |
