	Unfortunately, ftp.nominum.com is also down.  There is a list of 
mirror sites at <http://www.isc.org/ISC/MIRRORS.html>, but 
unfortunately unless they mirror all ISC content, they're likely to 
do something like mirror the BIND 4 & BIND 8 stuff, but not the BIND 
9 stuff (which is in a different directory hierarchy).  For the US 
mirrors, I found that ftp.epix.net had BIND 8 and not BIND 9, and 
that meeko.EECS.Berkeley.EDU appeared to either be down or not exist 
at all.

	I ended up pulling stuff from ftp.ripe.net, which worked well 
even though the site I was pulling down from was in the US, and the 
server is in the Netherlands.

	See the mirror list.  Unfortunately, none of the official US 
mirrors seem to be up or have the BIND 9 stuff, so you may have to 
look outside the US to find what you're looking for.
