Has this ever worked?

Maybe there is a network problem at your end.

Maybe there is a temporary server issue on our end. Try again later?

I have the same issue.

Also, I tried to ping rsync.macports.org and it just timed out. Has the address changed?

Seems to be down for me too (and it used to work for me). Connection stays stuck on SYN_SENT, but no ACK is ever received.

To rderosa86@...: No the address has not changed. MacPorts' hosting provider has been experiencing intermittent issues over the last few months. This seems to be one of them.

You can wait for the service to be back up, or you can sync with the Subversion repository.

Has duplicate #49615.

Keith, rsync.macports.org and distfiles.macports.org (same IP address) are not responding to pings or http requests.

Replying to macports@…: Does anyone know when it will be back up?

I only just assigned the ticket to the administrator 8 minutes ago. I don't know how often he checks his messages or how long it will take him to figure out what the problem is and how to solve it.

Has duplicate #49616.

This got fixed sometime yesterday (?) or the day before. Thanks.
