In my /etc/make.conf the variable:
PORTAGE_BINHOST="http://chinstrap.alternating.net/files/binaries/i686/"
is set to enable downoloading and installing binary packages,
using a command
emerge -kg
from the service of the webpage:
http://chinstrap.alternating.net
which I encountered once just by a pure accident.
I used it many times ever since and it worked good for me.
But for 2 days it does not want to share its valuable files any more,
producing this strange output:
(111) Connection refused
Does anybody know anything of them? Is their server crashed or my IP become
banned or something?
