Thanks to the generosity of TDC Internet, the FreeBSD Project primary public FTP server is back on-line. The new machine is a full and complete official mirror site for ftp-master.freebsd.org. Note that this also represents a shift away from our previous model of having only one master FTP server for both mirrors and end-users to use. We now maintain ftp-master.freebsd.org as the "definitive repository" for all things FreeBSD and make it accessible only to tier-one mirror sites. The new ftp.freebsd.org is one such mirror, albeit a very well-connected and maintained one, which will serve both the tier-two mirrors and end-users. It is located in Denmark and has good connectivity both with Europe and to the United States. In time, we hope to add more tier-one sites and migrate to a far more fault-tolerant model than we had before. Your patience during this services transition has been greatly appreciated. - Jordan About TDC Internet: TDC Internet is the Internet division of TDC, the former national PTT of Denmark (previously known as Tele Danmark), partially owned by SBC of Texas.
