The problem is the association of a service name (syncproxy, ftp.CC) to a specific host. The redirector and its monitoring look for the individual hosts, not for service names, so for the "debian.carnet.hr" entry it will look up the DNS rr of debian.carnet.hr, connect to it using a host: debian.carnet.hr, and look for the debian.carnet.hr site trace. At no time it uses the service name. So for this specific case to be solved, either something is renamed on the host (e.g. the trace file, but...), or on the list, or we just give up on this and add a "Trace-file: syncproxy.eu.debian.org" field on the mirrors list entry. It is an ugly workaround, however. Also note that only the redirector is aware of that field.
