I have pkgbox.dragonflybsd.org set up to regularly build up-to-date binary packages from the most recent 'stable' release of pkgsrc.
What I'd like to do is restrict access to mirrors only, with rsync. This would entail a username and password (separate from any existing accounts on leaf or other dragonflybsd.org machines) for use for rsync only. If you run one of the mirrors below, please let me know what you want your username/password to be - and tell me if rsync won't work out. (it looks like the most efficient choice right now) chlamydia.fs.ei.tum.de TheShell.com TWAREN FTP dragonflybsd.kiev.ua Also - if you want to set up a new mirror, please tell me. Evil Plan Part 2: I found pkg_add (and I think 'make bin-install') can be set to use a CGI target that will accept redirects to mirror sites. The Plan is to set a redirect script up on pkgbox.dragonflybsd.org, and then modify the default shell profiles/rc files on DragonFly to point at that URL. The goal of the Plan is to make any new DragonFly system able to install software 'out of the box'. You then do not have an out-of-date pkgsrc src tree, and you do have a relatively reliable network installation system that works immediately and probably faster than building from source. Does anyone have an objection to 'The Plan'?
