Hi,
ftp.scientificlinux.org
ftp1.scientificlinux.org
ftp2.scientificlinux.org
rsync.scientificlinux.org
are all separate servers. But they all get their files from the same
back end file server.
I just ran a double check on all of the servers to make sure they all
came up with the same sha1sum on the 6.0 x86_64 iso files (all of them)
and they all produced the same checksum.
What is much more likely is that somewhere between you and our servers
is something that is doing web caching.
