From this morning (October 01) on, ftp.uni-erlangen.de and ftp.fau.de point to new hardware.
The new machine is much more powerful than the old one, and we tried our best to make the mirroring setup as robust as possible. Hopefully, incosistent and outdated mirrors (because the mirror-job hung) are now a thing of the past. You can actually check this yourself: The FTP startpage lists the last successful run for all major mirrors, and there is also a page that shows how long the last mirror runs took and if they succeeded or not.
