The CentOS Team is pleased to announce the official release of a new single CD Server version of CentOS 3.4 for i386.

Downloading -- Bittorrent
-------------------------
The bittorent for the CD is found at :-
http://mirror.caosity.org/centos/3.4/isos/i386/CentOS-3.4-i386-Server.iso.torrent
Please use bittorrent and keep your downloader running for others to use even after the download completes.
If you need to install bittorrent for CentOS, rpms are available from Dag's repository.
http://dag.wieers.com/packages/bittorrent/bittorrent-3.4.2-1.1.el3.rf.noarch.rpm
An earlier version of bittorrent is also available in the CentOS 3.3 contrib repo - which may be installed using 'yum install bittorrent' - a gui version is also available - 'yum install bittorrent-gui'
Then execute btdownloadcurses.py url to .torrent file in a shell. (or btdownloadgui.py for the gui) You may need to open ports 6881-6889 and 6969 if you have tight firewall restrictions.
The .torrent files are also available on all caosity mirrors.
Once again - please leave your downloader running after the download is complete (with ports 6881-6889 open) as your downloader will become part of the peer to peer bittorrent network and reduce the load on our mirror servers.
