Hi, I had send an email some time ago to the list regarding the apache mirror I created. However, I have not received any response. I was wondering if an admin could look into the mirror to ensure it's integrity. Details:
Server: http://apache.simhams.com Httpd version: 1.3.22 Os: Redhat Linux 7.2 Mirroring Technique: rsync Refresh period: daily Refresh time: 4:00am Pacific Please let me know when you have added this mirror to your list.
