Here is the latest update.
It seems we will not have another power outage, just rationing power for 
the time being.  Because of that we are only able to bring up 
ftp.scientificlinux.org at the current time.
rsync is turned on for ftp.scientificlinux.org so you are able to mirror 
from it.
We will find out tomorrow what will be done with the other machines 
rsync.scientificlinux.org, ftp1.scientificlinux.org and 
ftp2.scientificlinux.org.
Thank you for your patience.
We will keep you updated when we find out more.
