Re: desire for ftp.internat.freebsd.org mirror
Mark Murray would know :-) I think there's a lot of stale cruft on ftp.internat.freebsd.org which doesn't need to be mirrored - Mark could probably tell us all which bits are suitable for mirroring (this should be documented somewhere for posterity) Mostly packages and distfiles. covering_in_asbestos mirroring of all that stuff should be migrated to rsync(1), since this implicitly defines (in terms of standard archive'/distribution handling) a structured "package" like layout, so we would have several collections (freebsd-ftp/ freebsd-www/ freebsd-crypto-US/ freebsd-crypto-nonUS/ and so on...) thus, it would be easier to set up a mirror, the paths would be more standard, the updates would be better in sync (since rsync really does a good job in not just only checking if a file has a new datestamp) and the world would be a bit better ;-) /covering_in_asbestos I could do this.

Isn't there *anyone* with an permanate FTP server that could officially mirror the crypto bits from ftp.internat.freebsd.org? Part of the reason for the poor access is that we are suffering from late delivery of circuits on the part of ATT (some of the circuits have been outstanding since 15 November). - The site is located on one of our customers' premises. Of course, latency across satellite circuits also does not help. A further problem is apparent congestion on the customer's access crcuit to us - they really seem to be nailing their Internet access. (I'm seeing 600ms ping times across the access circuit.) Thus, a small modicum of improvement may be achieved if we were to mirror the site on ftp.is.co.za. This should be possible when we upgrade our ftp server (sometime this month). I can check with the administrator of our ftp site, whether he will be able to do the mirror. Only problem is that the directory structures will need to differ, as we are already ftp4.za.freebsd.org. For anyone from across the pond trying to access the site, your best mileage will probably be between 1900 and 0600 GMT, when most of our clients are asleep.

If the amount of data is not huge, we can put it on ftp.dk.FreeBSD.org I have no idea how big the collection is -- I could just finally login, but an ``ls'' timed out. I found out that not using passive mode works. Oops, that was my fault. Somewhere in all the wu-ftpd upgrades the ports that the CSIR firewall allowed and what wu-ftpd tried to use for passive ftp got out of sync. Should be fixed now. At the moment our (the CSIR's) internet link is VERY saturated during working hours (we are in SA so GMT+2). If you can try after hours, you should have better luck. The people responsible for our network are playing with a PacketShaper from Packeteer to see if that will help, but at the moment it seems that ftp response is worse than ever. I'm trying to work with them to see if we can get it better. BTW. Wes Peters' idea of a boat is way cheaper than what we pay for our 1Mbit/s link here. :-) John -- John Hay -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
