First, I must apologize for the rather hasty OP (copied below . . . as well as the appreciated dev endorsement).
Second, after setting up the ftp mirror, I did some further "hacking" and would like to make avaliable not just the ftp mirror, but also an http and rsync mirror as well. Thus, the following are avaliable to the public and a mention on the ftp page would be nice/appropriate/helpful. ftp://ftp.lambdaserver.com/pub/OpenBSD http://ftp.lambdaserver.com/pub/OpenBSD rsync://ftp.lambdaserver.com/ I should mention things that I didn't before and reiterate others . . . 1) I am committed to maintaining this service 2) At the moment, I have a ~300G hard drive devoted to it (and willing to devotre more, in the future) 3) I have a DSL (high-speed) connection 4) now I'm just kissing ass Thanks! -Neal On Sat, Nov 14, 2009 at 07:27:03AM -0700, Bob Beck wrote: > Well neal, hopefully my partners in crime will get you on the ftp page > - as for second level, we usually reserve that for sites > with two special properties: > > 1) They need to be able to reach the Univesity of Alberta where the > primary fanout site is over Internet 2 - this ensures releases > get there fast and don't cost the university more money on their > commercial internet link. > > 2) We need an openbsd developer involved in the mirror, so we have a > nearby throat to choke if something goes awry.. > > Having said that just another decent mirror still does us good service > - what with the new mirror picking stuff in 4.6 we expect more load on > the mirrors, so it's nice to have more of them. > > 2009/11/14 neal hogan <n...@lambdaserver.com>: > > I am maintaining (and intend to continue to maintain) a full oBSD mirror > > in Chicago.
