1 Hi folks,
2
3 I run into this on occasion. I have tried several things but when it
4 happens I can not sync for a couple days. Here is what I get as far as
5 the error:

93 I have managed to correct this a time or two by changing this in
94 make.globals:
95
96 > PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times
97 > --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats
98 > --timeout=400 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local'
99 > --exclude='/packages'"
100
101 If you look at a default one the timeout is lower. Most of the time
102 this works. I think the problem is this, I have a really slow dial-up
103 connection. I used to be on a cable connection and I never had this
104 problem, not even once. It seems that it takes so long to download the
105 data that the server gets tired of my slow connection and just cuts me
106 off. Also note, that first server is one of the ones that works. I'm
107 sort of confused as to why it failed this time.
108
109 Here is a emerge info just in case:

300 Anybody have any idea of how to fix this?? While I am at it, is there
301 any way to override the default sync servers? There is a couple that
302 never work and they are not in make.conf. I can't seem to get rid of
303 them. It seems portage is overriding the list of servers I want it to use.
304
305 Thanks in advance for the help. I'm sure there are a lot of Gentoo
306 users out there that have sucky dial-up. :-\ I connect at 28.8K which
307 gives me about 3 to 4KBs a sec. OOo takes about 24 hours. O_O
