Hi there, 

I am attempting to create a local mirror of the main, contrib & updates
files (RPMS only, no SRPMS) using 'mirror'.

I have so far been unable to get it to download files recursively. I
only get the contents of the i586 directory.

Here is my config:

package=PackageName
comment=MyComments go here
site=ftp.proxad.net
remote_dir=/pub/Distributions_Linux/Mandrakelinux/official/10.0/i586/
local_dir=/path/to/local/mirror/
Recursive=true

I suspect it may be a problem with flags_recursive as this is unset so
defaults to -lRat. If I ftp manually an do ls -lRat I do just get a list
of files in the i586 directory and no-recursion.

Has anyone managed to get a local mirror working ?? If so, can you let
me know how you achieved this?? (oh and how much disk-space is used)

Thanks,

Jamie
