I am trying to download the Fedora core 3 DVD iso using Gftp
and a dilaup connection. It has almost finished once and for some strange reason
it seems to go to zero percent and start over again. Any ideas Thanks Joe47

I had that problem until I enabled KGET that comes from the KDE window manager install in FC3. And I also found that some sites make gftp report strange percentages anyway because of the file system they have and the services that might be disabled on my box. And then you also need to set the modem either kppp or wvdial to reconnect if disconnected and set the timeouts.
