Hardware: Disk space to hold the parts you want to mirror. Are you looking to be just an FTP mirror, a WWW mirror (about 8 megs), a CVSUP mirror, or some combination of all of these? I would say that a safe bet would be an 8 gig HD for all of them. Bandwidth: No one has ever done a study of what it takes. Generally, you would need a good, stable connection. -- Patrick ---------- Patrick Gardella patrick@whetstonelogic.com VP-Technology patrick@freebsd.org Whetstone Logic, Inc.
