Could someone please post the checksum, md5 or sha1, for the
Fedora 9 update glibc-common-2.8-8.i386.rpm?

Thanks

I am having a bear of a time downloading the rpm:

The checksum alone won't help you, but learning how to use
"rsync"
to complete damaged/partial downloads would be my recommendation.
There are several rsync Fedora mirrors world-wide.

Run "rpm -Kv glibc-common-2.8-8.i386.rpm" on the downloaded
file to verify it.

Also, try "wget -c" if you can't find a suitable rsync mirror.

The link in my post lists the various downloading
mechanisms I tried which included: yum, wget, commandline
ftp, firefox ftp, firefox http, curl and rsync.

Quoting from the link you posted: "wget: hung after a couple of MBytes -
about 6%.". Meaning it connected and started transferring, so "wget -c"
will transfer a bit more. Repeat as needed.

This isn't theoretical, I've done it a few times in the past.
