when trying to do 
> get -R RedHat-6.x RedHat-7.0 Mandrake-7.x

I got

get RedHat-7.0: server said: Permission denied on server. (Transfer
limits exceeded)

aftre all of RedHat-6.x was retrieved

is there any reason for this ?

Yes, we don't want ppl to "mirror" off the central server using FTP ... we
have rsync setup that all the mirror sites use to update their code, and
don't even allow them any special access for doing bulk transfers ...
