Hi Martin,
Could you let me know what time this happened, and what machine is doing the transfer. It's actually much easier for us to trace ftp transactions than rsync, so maybe this will give us a glimpse into what is happening better than tracking down DESY's rsync.

I am seeing this too, on a long-standing mirror using lftp direct from
ftp.scientificlinux.org.  Clobbered some installations I was doing of
our copy on Sunday - we lost some of the SL4.4 i386 base stuff, mostly
files starting 'o'  (openssl, openoffice, openssh, ... list on request).
A re-sync of the mirror brought the files back.

Subject: Problem with Mirroring

Hi,
I am new here and have one problem when mirroring the repositories:
  sometimes the packages disappear and reappear after some
time. I was told that this is a problem
with the fileserver. Now there are some old packages, which
seems to be deleted on purpose and some
seems to be reorganized.

Is there any possibility to see, which files would be deleted
on purpose and which are just
temporarily deleted?

Cheers
Kai Leffhalm
