So this is why update didn't work today... Your tax dollars no longer at work, 
for you... Can't wait to see the big improvements in "world-class scientific 
research" to come from this.... if those are publicly available.

Argonne National Laboratory Software Mirror
* * * * * * * * NOTICE * * * * * * * *

Public Argonne software mirror users,

We regret to inform you that public access to the Argonne software mirror will 
no longer be available as of February 1, 2015. The service will continue to be 
available onsite to Argonne employees, but offsite access will require an 
Argonne VPN connection.

The following websites will no longer be accessible from the Internet:
* http://mirror.anl.gov
* http://mirror.mcs.anl.gov
* http://mirror.ipv6.anl.gov
This applies to access via the HTTP, FTP, and rsync protocols.

This was a difficult decision as the Argonne public software mirror has been 
one of the more popular mirrors in North America for open source software, 
receiving millions of unique visits a year. However, it has expanded beyond the 
core scope and mission of the Laboratory, which is to perform world-class 
scientific research.

If you require access to mirrored software repositories, you will need to 
reconfigure your system to use a different public software mirror. Please go to 
the software’s website to find a list of alternative mirrors.

We cannot thank you enough for making the Argonne public software mirror such a 
success.

- Argonne National Laboratory
