Ah, only works on .iso, not on .iso.gz - kind of makes sense.

I've got to say I love the RSync servers hosting the DF .iso's

Simply rename one of the old .iso's to the new name, and do an
`rsync --progress
rsync://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/DragonFly/iso-images/dfly-1.6.0_REL.iso.gz .`
and watch the magic - not bad getting 2MB/s over a 56k modem...
