Dear Enrique Mafla,

the Hannover GRASS site allows rsync access:
rsync -v www.geog.uni-hannover.de::grass/grass/grass5/binary/linux/grass5b7_linux_intel.tar.gz

Recommendation:
Get GRASS 5 beta 7 instead of GRASS 5b6. And get additionally the install
script:

rsync -v www.geog.uni-hannover.de::grass/grass/grass5/binary/linux/grass5install.sh

Kind regards
