Cant install new kdemod...Site down??

Ok, trying to get kde mod setup for the first time without any other x-windows installed yet. each time it tires to update using packman, it says connection timeout .

 error: failed to update custom (unexpected error) error: failed retrieving file 'kdemod-core.db.tar.gz' from kdemod.iskrembilen.com : connection timed out

Core, extra, testing, are sync'd and up to date. All other packages have updated and installed fine. When i use another pc and try to go to their site listed in the script: Server = http://kdemod.iskrembilen.com/repo/core/i686 it also seems down?

Is anyone else able to get to this site right now? Would this be the only reason why its not working, and is there an alternate server location i can use instead?

I wanted to try out kdemod4 but i might need to try openbox if i cant get kdemod to work....

Thanks

/etc/packman.conf :

[community]
Include = /etc/packman.d/mirrorlist
# "I put this next line in for kde just to see if it would help"
Server = http://kdemod.iskrembilen.com/repo/core/i686

[custom]
[kdemod-core]
Server = http://kdemod.iskrembilen.com/repo/core/i686

[kdemod-extragear]
Server = http://kdemod.iskrembilen.com/repo/extragear/i686

Sadly it seems down again...

Sandsmark prolly messed up once again

Try another mirro while iskrembilen is down. (it will be back up sooner or later)

Sandsmark got some hardware issues, use the other mirror or wait a few days.

Used the other mirror and everything seems to be working great. I installed the complete just to see whats included and how it works on my laptop. Dont know why i did not think of using another mirror....guess thats why i am a noob
