    <thetext>Email to webmasters at gnu.org sent:

Subject: Intermittent failures for ftp.gnu.org connections

I work on the Yocto Project which builds custom GNU/Linux
distros from source. We have a series of build system tests
that fail intermittently for connections to:
   http[s]://ftp.gnu.org
as described, somewhat cryptically, here:
   https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12890

Is there some kind of rate limiting/DoS protection that
is run on the ftp.gnu.org server and if so can we get added
to a whitelist? Do you have any log file evidence that servers from the yoctoproject.org/.io are being throttled?

While we could use a local mirror for our testing, the intent
is to test the system as users of the Yocto Project would use
it. A local mirror would hide any connectivity or reliability
problems.</thetext>

    <thetext>Armin,
Do you recall when these errors happened?
Are they worse at a particular time of day?</thetext>

&gt; Armin,
&gt; Do you recall when these errors happened?
&gt; Are they worse at a particular time of day?

Weekends or in the Evening ( PST )</thetext>

    <thetext>A GNU webmaster replied:

   We had intermittent downtime on that machine in the last few days 
   due to problems in our datacenter, I think they could have caused 
   the errors. We also have some DDOS and request limits at the firewall 
   level, but I don&apos;t think they have changed recently. I&apos;m closing this 
   by now, if your build system continues to see errors please reopen by 
   replying to this email, and we will look into the network/firewall 
   side of things.

Armin, 
Do you think that explains the problem or has this been happening for a while already? Is it worth trying the test again a few times?</thetext>

    <thetext>The problem apparently was not on the webserver end so there&apos;s not much to be done. Re-open if the issue persists.</thetext>
