SCP/SSHEXEC tasks: Download of jsch-0.1.39 jar

I am having trouble getting the jar file needed to support the 
scp/sshexec tasks. I am running Ant 1.7.0 in Eclipse Europa.

The manual says that I need any version of the jsch jar, version 0.1.28 
or above. The JCraft page shows the current version is 0.1.39. Both a 
zip and a jar is available for download but, unfortunately, something is 
messed up with the link for the jar. When I try to download the jar, it 
takes me to sourceforge.net but gives me the zip file, not the jar. The 
zip file does NOT include the jar so it is useless to me. I've also 
tried downloading the zip file, thinking the links might be reversed, 
but it ALSO gives me the zip file.

Does anyone know another place to get the jsch jar?

I've already send JCraft an email identifying the problem but who knows 
how responsive they are to email? It could be days, weeks, or months 
before they read their email and fix the bad link.

If anyone can direct me to another source of the jsch jar, I'd 
appreciate it. It doesn't need to be 0.1.39; I'll live with any version 
that works with Ant 1.7.0. (I have jsch-0.1.18 in an old version of 
Eclipse but that isn't new enough for my purposes.)

If anyone could point me to another place to get that jar, I'd 
appreciate it!

Hi Kevin,

You're brilliant! I tried another mirror, this time in Berlin rather 
than in San Jose, and this time the link took me to the jar and I 
downloaded the file just fine.

It never occurred to me that sourceforge.net has mirrors; I never 
noticed the mirror name amidst the rest of the clutter on the page. I 
should have thought of it myself, I suppose, but you saved me the 
trouble ;-)

Thanks a lot, Kevin!

In my experience, the JCraft devs are excellent and very responsive,
so I doubt your wait will be measured in months/years.

That said I just tested the download and the jar did download
correctly for me (I used the http://www.nchc.org.tw/ taiwan mirror for
sourceforge as I live in Vietnam and that one seems to be pretty fast
for me).  Perhaps you should try again and choose a different mirror?
