Thread: Linux Distro's - Where To Download Locally.

  1. #76

    I found this the other day when I downloaded the latest Ubuntu. A worthwhile addition IMO: ftp://ftp.wa.co.za/pub/

    Being a WebAfrica server, I wonder if they allow you to download from a WA account without affecting your cap, like their WAGE servers.

    Go to the ftp site in your browser and download the distro you want, really no need for Filezilla if you ask me.

    We have contacted Saix, Web Africa, IS and not a single one of them will host local links for makululinux

    I get more support out of the country than i do inside the country... ( talking about hosts and sponsors, not userbase, the people in SA have been amazing in their support )

    Have you spoken to any of the universities? Most of them have ftp sites and mirrors. They also have huge bandwidth. (I'm thinking Stellies and Tuks here) But I hear you on the big boys issue.
    I don't say much, but if I do say something, it pays to listen.
