Hmmm. That is weird. I don't know off the top of my head what would be
causing that problem. The file clearly exists on the server. Are you
behind an HTTP proxy? If so, you need to enter its details in Red
Carpet. Start Red Carpet and go to Edit -> Preferences and enter the
details there. The only other thing I can think of is that your rcd
cache has gotten corrupted somehow. As root, try the following:

/sbin/service rcd stop
rm -fR /var/cache/rcd
/sbin/service rcd start
rug ref
rug up

If after checking your proxy settings and doing the above it still isn't
working let me know and I'll forward your problem to the rc-devel list.

Best, Darren
