According to the 'how-to-mirror' page (
http://www.apache.org/info/how-to-mirror.html )
and the list of rsync modules at dev.apache.org :
apache-site Apache WWW Site <--- 1
apache-dist Apache software distribution <--- 2
I have, for many years now, placed the WWW site ( 1 above ) under my
htdocs tree ( http://sunsite.sut.ac.jp/pub/apache/ ) and the software
distribution ( 2 above )
under my ftp tree at ( ftp://sunsite.sut.ac.jp/pub/archives/www/apache/ ). And
these are
the URLs that are listed on the mirrors page. The ftp URL is correct but the
http URL
displays http://sunsite.sut.ac.jp/pub/apache/ on the mirrors page but
'internally' points
to http://sunsite.sut.ac.jp/pub/apache/dist/
I fail to see what am I doing wrong !! Someone on the Apache group has
to
correct this 'inconsistency' as well as provide the right files via rsync :-(
[ FYI : SunSITE Japan is one of the oldest ftp/web servers - mirroring NCSA
httpd and
later Apache since 1993 ]
