We have been forced/ordered by UNO IS to disallow connections from outside 137.48.0.0/16 to hive.ist.unomaha.edu.
Allegedly the Lincoln campus is having "bandwidth issues", and the North campus network engineers are quickly pointing their fingers at everyone except for themselves (which is absurd; network utilization on hive is relatively light to begin with--but nobody wants to listen to us). They're also somewhat upset that on https://www.archlinux.org/mirrors/ the mirror is falsely attributed to North campus "unomaha.edu", rather than us, "ist.unomaha.edu".
I know how terrible it is for mirrors to do this, but I'd much like to not risk my job over this; my sincerest apologies--it's even worse for me, because HP was about to give us a $15,000 server donation (they donate to "open source" causes or something I guess) to replace hive, but of course IS can't let nice things like this happen.
Hopefully we'll be able to clear our name soon--in the meantime, I thought I would proactively explain why your probe is unable to talk to hive.
I've marked your mirror inactive for now; thanks for letting us know. -Dan
