Every one rejects ping.  Still, I think I'll use the one I know to be in 
Europe, http://depot-trinity.dotriver.eu/trinity/ .  I used to use it, but 
stopped for some reason and switched to http://mirror.ntmm.org/trinity/ .  I 
can't remember why.

It isn't just in Europe: it is in France.  It may well be my nearest mirror.  
The nearest point of land in France is about 60 miles away.

Could it be added to the list of mirrors?

I have actually been looking on Google, and both kuiper and copernicus come up 
as being at the University of Kent.  That seems a little strange, to host the 
mirror twice at Kent University.  I'll try those if dotriver isn't 
satisfactory.

dotriver is in Lyon, which is further from me than Kent (485.6 miles to 117.5 
miles), but I still think I'll try it first.  I haven't got on well with the 
University of Kent mirror in the past.  If it hosts everything twice, under 
two different names, that could explain a lot!

Thanks, this has been a most instructive excercise.
