testing accessibility to sources.redhat.com

[Don Sharp <dwsharp at iee dot org>]

This is a somewhat off topic item.
I have been trying for the last three weeks to update my cygwin
installation with setup.exe. Unfortunately I can't establish a connection.

traceroute (from my linux firewall) and tracert from my NT box both show
that the trace reaches a router somewhere in the USA and then falls down
a black hole. MY ISP says it's not his problem because he's passed the packets
onward. Has anyone else, (particularly customers of blueyonder.co.uk),
had any trouble reaching sources.redhat.com? Until recently I have had no
difficulties updating.

TIA

Don Sharp
