Maybe I have seen something different then.

The reboot-vm job in Jenkins sometimes spits out the 404 error page from
www.gluster.org instead of connecting to the Rackspace API. This could
be a DNS issue, or a (transparent) proxy, or something else. It feels
very similar to the nightly builds trying to connect to a different
IP-address than the one download.gluster.org has (ssh connection).
