Hi All,

Reading the article at the location
http://opensolaris.org/os/project/pkg/Mirroring/  tried to mirror the
IPS repository on my local server.But faced some errors while doing so
which are written below.

I want to mirror the IPS server at
http://pkg.opensolaris.org/release/en/index.shtml as I want to  work
with distro-constructor and local IPS. So followed the steps below.
-- Working on opensolaris-rc1b release.

Steps followed
1) # svccfg import /var/svc/manifest/application/pkg-server.xml --
imported the manifest.
2) # mkdir /export/pkg ; /usr/lib/pkg.depotd -d /export/pkg -p 8009 --
started the IPS server and checked it through the web browser also.
3) But when I tried to rsync from the pkg,opensolaris.org I am always
hitting the error below
 <snip>
    # om...@shankar:~# /usr/bin/rsync -a
pkg.opensolaris.org::osol_dev_files /export/pkg/file
    rsync: failed to connect to pkg.opensolaris.org: Connection timed
out (145) rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at
clientserver.c(104) [receiver=2.6.9]
</snip>

Questions ??

-- In the Mirroring article I read the following statement "if you are
running a public mirror, please pull at 0200 your time" --- what does
this statement mean ?? I stay in india should I start pulling the
packages by the rsync command at 0200 india time.
-- This process will copy all contents on IPS to my local IPS right ?

Thanks,
Omkar Lagu
