As long as I can remember this mirror has been slow, unreliable, down,
or not in sync. It's 20 miles from my house, so I get sent there a lot.
I usually just try several times until it works (I use yum, not
up2date).
If you want to change mirrors, I've had success with
ftp://mirror.linux.duke.edu
ftp://ftp.gtlib.cc.gatech.edu
ftp://redhat.secsup.org
ftp://ftp.dc.aleron.net
I'm in southwest Ohio. In addition to FC2 I run FC3 test1 which gets
hundreds of updates, and I get by OK on those mirrors. Can't promise
they'll be perfect for up2date, but it's worth a shot.
