Cool! :) I thought I had copied everything correctly :)  One comment, would it
be possible to increase the chunk size of the distributions?   Its just too
small to get any good streaming, with the standard distributions I was seeing
~70K/sec, with the X distributions (larger .tgz files) I was getting
consistantly 200K+/sec (this is all over a cable network, sort of like an
install one T1 away from cdrom.com).
