It was much appreciated. hmm, if you are doing that.. and you're doing a complete mirror, any chance of you installing rsync on your server for us downstreams ? :-) it basically takes between a week to 10 days, *if* all goes well, to mirror some of the package trees. it took a month once, because of network problems. not too `real time'. i have long been considering abandoning all other than "release" package trees to someone who has the infinite time/money/bandwidth and/or is a much better mirroring person than i am. > PS: Though I do wish there was an official rsync server. been asking for a while. to date, the answer is "no", and with no tending towards infinity to "never". bitter ? me ? :-) i'll have to look at spegla.. i'm pretty happy with a current combination of mirror.pl/rsync.. but i don't think mirror.pl has much development nowadays. -jason To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hubs" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-hubs Wed Jan 10 14: 5:53 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-hubs@freebsd.org Received: from basm.cerias.purdue.edu (basm.cerias.purdue.edu [128.10.243.21]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7F5AB37B69D for ; Wed, 10 Jan 2001 14:05:35 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (raj@localhost) by basm.cerias.purdue.edu (8.9.3+Sun/8.9.3) with ESMTP id RAA09455 for ; Wed, 10 Jan 2001 17:05:29 -0500 (EST) Date: Wed, 10 Jan 2001 17:05:29 -0500 (EST) From: Brian Poole To: Subject: Re: mirroring software In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hubs@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org On Thu, 11 Jan 2001, jason andrade wrote: > > > Actually we're mirroring straight from ftp.freebsd.org (aka > > freesoftware.com) because our server was (and will be again) > > ftp3.freebsd.org.

To be truthful spegla is immensely better at mirroring large sites than mirror.pl. mirror.pl is slow and a big fat resource hog. I would recommend you take a close look at it for mirroring FreeBSD. -b To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hubs" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-hubs Wed Jan 10 15:54:58 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-hubs@freebsd.org Received: from meow.osd.bsdi.com (meow.osd.bsdi.com [204.216.28.88]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D945337B6A3 for ; Wed, 10 Jan 2001 15:54:39 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (logo@localhost) by meow.osd.bsdi.com (8.11.1/8.9.3) with ESMTP id f0ANs2M94410; Wed, 10 Jan 2001 15:54:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from logo@meow.osd.bsdi.com) Date: Wed, 10 Jan 2001 15:54:02 -0800 (PST) From: Valentino Vaschetto To: Vincent Rivellino Cc: Subject: Re: mirroring software In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hubs@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org There is already another ftp3 server that is doing just fine, and has been for a very long time. -val On Wed, 10 Jan 2001, Vincent Rivellino wrote: > On Thu, 11 Jan 2001, jason andrade wrote: > > > a few people have mentioned omi to me. > > > > if you're willing to mirror from a second or third tier mirror, i definitely > > prefer to use rsync. > > > > -jason > > Actually we're mirroring straight from ftp.freebsd.org (aka > freesoftware.com) because our server was (and will be again) > ftp3.freebsd.org.
