Hi

I mirror much freebsd from the primary south african site.  All has been
going well.  Recently i have been having problems with one mirror
session.  All other mirror sessions still work ok - weird !

The mirror is a fairly standard 2.2.8 release that gives few problems
(uptime of 42 days etc ...)

here is the error :
mirror# mirror -d -pdists freebsd.mirror
package=dists ftp.za.freebsd.org:/pub/FreeBSD/distfiles/ ->
/usr/mirror/freebsd/distfiles/
Scanning local directory /usr/mirror/freebsd/distfiles/
Scanning remote directory /pub/FreeBSD/distfiles/
timelocal:/usr/share/perl/timelocal.pl:73 Caught a SIGFPE shutting down
at /usr/local/bin/mirror line 3596, <NS> line 1882mirror#

here is the section of the mirror config file for the distfiles :
package=dists
        site=ftp.za.freebsd.org
        remote_dir=/pub/FreeBSD/distfiles/
        local_dir=/usr/mirror/freebsd/distfiles/
        compress_patt=

The other six sections are similar, even down to the site and local path
- it is just this one - so i don't think it has anything to do with the
remote or local site - probably with the execution miror software itself
- the version of the mirror software is 2.6

any ideas, or other information i could supply to aid in diagnosis ?

thanks
rudi
