 emerge --sync
Thanks for the help.  Turned out I had set up the module definition wrong in 
my rsyncd.conf.  I've now got both emerge --sync working using this as the 
sync source, and have it set up as the mirror source for installs, using 
rsync, instead of wget.

Thanks again for the help.

[gentoo-user] local portage server

2005-10-28 Thread John Jolet 
Okay, thanks for the advice, turns out rsyncd must be running for the rsync:// 
syntax to work.  Next step, when I do an emerge --sync, I get  rsync: 
link_stat /metadata/timestamp.chk (in portage) failed: No such file or 
directory (2)
2005/10/28 17:18:57 [1266] rsync error: some files could not be transferred 
(code 23) at main.c(513)

in my rsync log on the server.  where is that timestamp file supposed to come 
from?

You should have got that when you synced the server with one of the
Gentoo mirrors. the file is at ${PORTDIR}/metadata/timestamp.chk

I stayed up all night playing poker with tarot cards. I got a full
