applet errors with mirror, up2date correct

[A.J. Bonnema]

While up2date works fine with FC1, the applet, that's supposed to warn 
me of updates (and it did when I used the central repository) has 
stopped warning when I started using a mirror. It always has the green 
"OK"-button and when I open it, it shows a bit of "critical information" 
as follows:

"
The applet has been unable to access the following information sources 
in its last attempts: nluug-fedora-core-1 @ 
ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/fedora/1/i386/os, 
nluug-fedora-updates-released @ 
ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/fedora/updates/1/i386
"
<Typed this, because cut/paste from the RHN alert notification tool 
doesn't work (?)>

However, subsequently running up2date shows all updates and I can update 
all correctly.

Does anyone have a clue what might be wrong?

Guus.
