[gentoo-user] Rsync Failing with no route to host, when there is...

Hi,

    I have a server that appears unable to rsync for emerge --sync.

    When I try I get:

>>> Starting rsync with rsync://204.74.99.100/gentoo-portage...
>>> Checking server timestamp ...
rsync: failed to connect to 204.74.99.100: No route to host (113)
rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(124)
[receiver=3.0.6]

    So, i check the IP....

    ping 204.74.99.100
PING 204.74.99.100 (204.74.99.100) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 204.74.99.100: icmp_seq=1 ttl=55 time=90.7 ms
64 bytes from 204.74.99.100: icmp_seq=2 ttl=55 time=91.6 ms
^C

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 90.792/91.241/91.691/0.541 ms

    Not a great Ping time, but this is the main rotation, so that server
is in the US and I'm not. I get the same thing using the europeean
rotation....

    I've re-emerged rsync, I've checked my world and system are all up
to date.... I've tried opening the firewall....Still nothing.... What
has gone wrong?

Regards

Nev

Is the rsync server you are connecting to actually running an rsync
daemon? Should be port 873. 

Hum, on second thought, host 204.74.99.100 resolves to
crs.ultradns.net which is a redirection service from UltraDNS. This
really suggests that the server you are trying to sync to is no-longer
in the rotation?

Ah, looks like my mistake. I typed the sync line when I changed it to
the main rotation, and missed the "rsync." from before gentoo org.

Mirrorselect give me the proper list, and it now appears to be working
as it should.

Thanks anyway Willie!
