The easiest way to keep up the mirror including all the old stuff and the 4.3 release stuff is to mirror an up to date mirror (for instance, ftp3.freebsd.org) and then mirror ftp.freebsd.org w/ software that can be configured to only download remote files and not delete local files. That *should* keep all your old files and grab the new ones. I'll leave ftp3.freebsd.org as a pre-4.3-RELEASE server for those of you who wish to take this route. -- Wes Kurdziolek Virginia Tech Computer Science Lab UNIX System Administrator E-mail: wkurdzio@cslab.vt.edu Voice: +1 (540) 231-3457 Office: 116A McBryde On Sun, 22 Apr 2001, Mark Visser wrote: > On Sat, Apr 21, 2001 at 01:40:15PM -0700, Jordan Hubbard wrote: > > Dear mirrors, > > > > What is probably most important to know right now, however, is the > > fact that "ftp.freebsd.org" is currently pointing to usw3.freebsd.org, > > also known as stable.freebsd.org and releng4.freebsd.org.
