when i do emerge rsync it tries to download iso-images which i definetly don't need! (i have x86 and it downloads ppc-iso's)
i.e.:
experimental/ppc/livecd/allstages/ppc/gentoo-ppc-1.4_rc5-010303.iso

PS: Portage 2.0.46-r9 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.1, glibc-2.3.1-r2)

was the solution... i used
rsync://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/gentoo
instead of
rsync://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/gentoo-portage

:roll:

PS: for all german users, this is a quite fast mirror...

And just for completeness: "rsync --exclude=/path" is rather handy too ;-)
