I run this script in the folder where the web server lives. $ cat downloadCran.sh rsync -rtlzv --delete cran.r-project.org::CRAN /home/freefaculty/freefaculty.org/cran I promise (sincerely) I changed nothing that forced src or web to 700. I manually put all the directories to permission 755 and then will run an update and see if they stay that way. If all stays well, I'll notify the address listed in the mirror HOWTO that this thing is in California. pj > > Best regards, > Fritz Leisch > -- Paul E.
