Both at home and at work I'm getting connection time outs when emerge trys to sync against 213.221.124.132. I've tried pinging the host and I get no response. Also, traceroute stops at: 212.6.224.219 I can sync fine with other servers in the rotation. Here's the error I get from 'emerge sync': rsync: failed to connect to 213.221.124.132: Connection timed out rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(88) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. SYNC="rsync://213.221.124.132/gentoo-portage" emerge sync Actual Results: >>> starting rsync with rsync://213.221.124.132/gentoo-portage... >>> checking server timestamp ... rsync: failed to connect to 213.221.124.132: Connection timed out rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(88) >>> retry ... >>> Starting retry 1 of 3 with rsync://213.221.124.132/gentoo-portage >>> checking server timestamp ... rsync error: received SIGUSR1 or SIGINT (code 20) at rsync.c(261) Exiting on signal 2 I first reported this bug on the gentoo forums a couple of days ago http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=2170034#2170034 (didn't realise there was a mirrors section in bugzilla :-S). Since then I've had a reply to my post by nephros who was seeing the same thing as I was but later said they thought that the host was gone from the rotation. As of posting this bug I'm still seeing "213.221.124.132" in the dns record, but this could be due to the servers I use not being updated yet. If this is the case, sorry for posting the bug :-D
Host has been removed, thanks. -Jeffrey
