The old danctnix server name at p64.arikawa-hi.me appears to have expired. I went looking and confirmed that it expired 2 years ago and was renewed at the time, and that archmobile.mirror.danctnix.org is the valid new server name. After updating /etc/pacman.conf to point to the new server, I was able to sync successfully again.

Thanks for sharing this KelsonV.  I've been having a challenging time with my new PT2.  This resolved my issue.   Wink
