thanks a lot, now I just wonder what site I can mirror : I used to get from
ftp.ciril.fr, but it refuses a rsync connection.
Is ftp.sunet.se the only rsync place?

Hi
If you have your cooker directory in /home/XXX/mandrake/cooker then you
could
use this command:
"rsync -av --delete ftp.sunet.se::Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/
/home/XXX/mandrake/cooker/"
Observe the trailing /, which tells the program to copy everything in that
directory.
As you are to start using rsync on a wget mirror, you have better add the
option " --size-only".
If your connection is bad and you feel that sometimes the transfer is
interrupted, then it is wise to keep the partially transfered files by
adding
the option "--partial".
So you might start with:
"rsync -av --delete --size-only --partial
ftp.sunet.se::Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/ /home/XXX/mandrake/cooker/"
I always use my browser to check where on the server the desired directory
is.
Good luck.
