Mirroring a repository like that is considered very bad form and will probably get your servers blacklisted. I don't have the benefit of other posts you may have made on this subject, but unless you are hosting half the known world of developers, why wouldn't you just use a repository? It makes things so much simpler with your builds since real world projects generally do not pull from just central. Having a half-dozen repositories in your build is a great way to have it constantly slow (and even slower at times when any one of those repositories is offline). Caching those repositories through Nexus insulates you from their downtime, without having to soak their bandwidth for files you will never use. $0.02...
