Can you clarify where the CRAN master can be found?

According to:
http://cran.r-project.org/mirror-howto.html

"The CRAN master site at WU Wien, Austria, can be found at the URLs
http://cran.r-project.org
ftp://cran.r-project.org/pub/R/
rsync: cran.r-project.org::CRAN"

And yet cran.r-project.org is exactly where I could NOT find this installer.

Thanks,
Dan
