Hi.
I want to run my own private rsync mirror, and have followed a guide I found
on the forum for this. I just want to make sure of one thing: The
rsync-gentoo-portage.sh script should be set to sync with
rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage right? I don't want to be doing
anything I'm not

Is it possible in some way to just syncing /usr/portage/ directory except /distfiles..
I mean if I know which files are unique for every machine I can make them as :
rsync --exc=
and set one cron job on the main machine to watch gentoo-mirrors and then on all
others
just rsync with this machine
You could just run FTP on your "server", and update the distfiles on it (by
rsync or FTP) whenever necessary, and set all the other machines to use it as
a mirror (making it the first entry in the "GENTOO_MIRRORS" line in
"make.conf").
Not really the answer you're looking for though.

hi,
I read the etiquete page about becoming portage-rsync mirror
I'm interested in making local portage mirror for my internal machines, they grow
constantly :").
I'm interested in the tehnical part of the stuff..
I'm not intending to sync even every day, but probably every couple of days
