Oh wow! I got some replies. Thanx for your co-operation and willingness to help. I have tried on several occasions to download the stuff from SuSE's FTP servers but there are 2 problems:
1.) The FTP servers are reallyreally unreliable
2.) The download is 6 GB and I have no way to back it up on CDs. Besides, I would have to split the files, and I would have to copy all of them back on the hard drive every time I wish to install

I think the BEST solution is to have someone either upload them on some reliable FTP server as ISO images (so I can grab them using Download Accelrator).

I am willing to work out a trade with anyone who may be interested in exchanging the iso images for something else

Daddy Sneb is sending me the disks early next week. I should have them by the mid of the week after. I will then create the ISOs and put them on the server one by one until they are all up. it will take a while to download them but you will be able to get started after the first disk is up. I'll post here when the first disk is up.

Hey shassouneh, the CDs are sent, just wait for a week before they're uploaded to the FTP server.

does anyone else have and FTP or HTTP server that could host some or another copy of all of the files? we are talking about 7 CD ISO images.

I'll give any willing participants access to my shared file collection! ~16GB

When I get the images up I'll mail you the link for them then once you've got them, we can post our links here.

Thanks.

Hello all,

I've mailed Nyc0n to get the address to upload them to. Anyone in the states should get better download times that way...

I'll post the files on my own server soon!

righto, I'm uploading the files now, this will take a few days, but should be OK.

After that's done I'll post here again then anyone who wants can mail me and I'll give the details to get you downloading!

I should say now that I've only tested the 5th disk! as I am out of CD's at the moment, I've got some more on order but I'm quite sure that all the images are OK.

I dunno guys... I don't think this is legal...

Think about it, is it legal to copy a RedHat Profeional Server CD? Probably not, because it contains proprietary closed-source oftware developed by RedHat (that's why the Professional Server si so expensive).
