Catherine,
These servers appear to be very unreliable, at least when accessing from
outside the USA. There is an alternative at:
ftp://utcnist.colorado.edu/pub/
but its file:
leap-seconds.3535228800
is from last March, and is now stale. The other two sites haven't come
up in spite of waiting several minutes (at 08:00 UTC, Jan 02).
For such an important file, I expect there are mirrors in Asia and
Europe - it's just that I haven't found them as yet.
