Hi Elliot,

I'd love to get a copy of RH 8.0 in order to mirror it for folks on the
Front Range (mostly, for members the CLUE and BLUG groups--both Front
Range LUGs).  Unfortunately, I can't get to any of the official RH
mirrors and I'm unable to connect to the TriLUG mirror using ftp.

Included below is an ftp session with a "passive mode" error.  I
understand that some firewalls will cause these errors.  Can you help? 
Again, if I get a copy I will gladly use it to setup a mirror (here on
the Mines campus) for two local LUGs.

tia,
Ed
