RE: FW: New Apache Mirror Site in Namibia

[Schalk Erasmus]

I have mirrored the correct Site, and WISH to be added to the list of
MIRRORS.

Please respond.

Regards
Schalk

The URL (I used), was:
http://httpd.apache.org/info/how-to-mirror.html

Is this not right? Since Rsync did mirror about 3Gb of Data.

I've got a scipt running:
rsync -rtlzv --delete --exclude incoming dev.apache.org::apache-site
/webdata/incredible/MIRRORS/apache

If I change the script from apache-site to apache-dist, will it delete all
the data?

Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Kind Regards
Schalk

 Well, accordingly to How to become a Mirror Site page, the mirror-submit
 address is listed on there.

Can you be more specific.  I can't find it anywhere on
http://www.apache.org/info/how-to-mirror.html
(It used to be there, but it was removed about a year ago.)


 Anyway, I'm mirroring Apache-Dist

The URL http://apache.incredible.com.na/ points at an apache-site mirror,
not an apache-dist mirror.  (apache-dist is a subset of apache-site
containing only the dist/ directory, but the extra part in apache-site
should NOT be mirrored, because it changes frequently and isn't useful to
people downloading from mirrors.)

Hmmm... Two things confuse me here:

1. Where did you get the mirror-submit address?  It hasn't been in use in
many months.

2. Why are you mirroring apache-site rather than apache-dist?
