	I have have been trying to "get" the GNU-C compressed archive
	from mit-prep, and have not been successful yet (I have tried
	at least five times, and had at least 2/3's at one time).

	What happens is that it goes along happily for a while, then
	all of a sudden will print the error:

		netin: Network is Unreachable

	The first time I just thought that some host went down
	between here and there.  The second time it did it,
	I immediately tried to connect again, and it was there
	and reachable.

	A couple of other times I have had it hang in the middle
	of a transfer, doing a "netstat" says everything is fine
	(both links - main, and the one for the transfer).

	I really give up, what is going on here?
