Problem Using Repository

I just installed Salix 14.2, and I'm having trouble using the official repository. Packages won't download or install. When I run "sudo slapt-get --add-keys", I get a "Not found message" for each of the four sources. When I run "sudo slapt-get -u", I get a "HTTP response code said error" message for each of the four sources. My slapt-getrc file:

Code: Select all

# Working directory for local storage/cache.
WORKINGDIR=/var/slapt-get

# Exclude package names and expressions.
# To exclude pre and beta packages, add this to the exclude:
#   [0-9\_\.\-]{1}pre[0-9\-\.\-]{1}
EXCLUDE=^aaa_elflibs,^aaa_base,^devs,^glibc.*,^kernel-.*,^rootuser-settings,^zzz-settings.*,-i?86-

# The Slackware repositories, including dependency information
SOURCE=http://salix.hostingxtreme.com/x86_64/slackware-14.2/:OFFICIAL
SOURCE=http://salix.hostingxtreme.com/x86_64/slackware-14.2/extra/:OFFICIAL

# The Salix repository
SOURCE=http://salix.hostingxtreme.com/x86_64/14.2/:PREFERRED
# And the Salix extra repository
SOURCE=http://salix.hostingxtreme.com/x86_64/extra-14.2/:OFFICIAL

# Local repositories
# SOURCE=file:///var/www/packages/:CUSTOM
The machine I run this on can ping hostingxtreme.com . Any thoughts?
