Hi, I was checking some things in the Debian mirror universe and noticed a problem with your mirror: Looking at https://mirror-master.debian.org/status/mirror-info/mirror.intergrid.com.au.html it seems you only sync about once a day. The Debian archive updates 4 times a day, and we expect mirrors listed in our mirror list to follow that cadence. A couple other things to note: o The tracefile at http://mirror.intergrid.com.au/debian/project/trace/mirror.intergrid.com.au is missing some required information. We expect at least the Maintainer and Upstream-mirror values to be filled in, and your tracefile is missing one or both of them. o The tracefile http://mirror.intergrid.com.au/debian/project/trace/mirror.intergrid.com.au suggests that the ftpsync version you are using is old. Please upgrade. Using a modern ftpsync ensures updates are done in the correct order so apt clients don't get confused. In particular, it processes translations, contents, and more files that have been added to the archive in recent years in the correct stage. It also should produce trace files that contain more information that is useful for us and helps downstream mirrors sync better. http://mirror.intergrid.com.au/debian/project/ftpsync/ftpsync-current.tar.gz Thanks, Julien
