In response to my query for better mirror maintenance, Karsten Thygesen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> suggested I look into a tool called "rsync", especially now that as of 2.0 it's not rsh-based and can be used securely for anonymous connections. It looked good, so I installed it. I have two repositories set up, apache-site (which is all of <http://www.apache.org/>, including dist/) and apache-dist, which is just the contents of <http://www.apache.org/dist/>. It appears to be much more bandwidth-efficient than using FTP to mirror content, so I recommend people check it out and let me know how it compares.
You can find details at http://samba.anu.edu.au/rsync and http://sunsite.auc.dk/SunSITE/rsync. Brian --=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-- pure chewing satisfaction [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
