CONT:

I have found that if I try to download multiple war files - e.g. to update
all my war files from 2.21 to 2.27 - then the server bombs out the same way
as when I'm on a slow connection.

The war server is the ONLY server I know of that behaves in this manner.
I'm downloading software from many sources regularly, and I've never seen
this anywhere else - so I'm convinced there's a configuration error in the
server setup. But Lars seems to be equally convinced that there isn't, so
the setup won't change.

Bottom line: Either use a faster connection, or else ask somebody else to
download and then make it available for you on another platform.

Regards
Calle
