FTP mirrors can be obtained from:
http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/ftp.php
Please verify the update prior to upgrading to ensure the integrity of
the downloaded package. You can do this with the command:
rpm --checksig <filename>
All packages are signed by MandrakeSoft for security. You can obtain
the GPG public key of the Mandrake Linux Security Team from:
https://www.mandrakesecure.net/RPM-GPG-KEYS
Please be aware that sometimes it takes the mirrors a few hours to
update.
