Not really, but the cvsup-mirror port works smoothly even if you don't understand its details. John Polstra's CVSup FAQ provides some additional information: http://www.polstra.com/projects/freeware/CVSup/faq.html Oh, and don't forget the cvsupd(8) man page. Some access control is available. > Also, how large is the entire CVSup server collection? 18M /home/ncvs/CVSROOT 437K /home/ncvs/distrib 78M /home/ncvs/doc 168M /home/ncvs/ports 808M /home/ncvs/src 20M /home/ncvs/www I don't have the gnats, live www, and mail archive collections here, but I don't think that they add too much to the 1.1G above. Some 2G should be plenty of space with sufficient reserve for some future growth. > I know the bottleneck is the Internet connection. The primary bottleneck for CVSup servers and clients tends to be the local disk. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.inka.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
