Hi, Thanks for the info, but doing this across several groups of servers is not really suitable. But that said, if there is no viable fix in the next day or so, then this might be the only solution.
Does anyone have a list of confirmed working mirrors? Thanks Joel for getting onto this, let me know if I can help somehow. -- Thanks Paul Dean.
