Nice website. Very up to date with the OS and all. Oh well, if it ain't
broke, don't fix it.
Just to be sure. is it http://ftp you want or ftp://ftp you want us to
use?
http://ftp4...
ftp://ftp4...
rsync://ftp4...
starting around minute 0 of an hour.
the i386 ISOs (implemented by Christoph Thiel at download.opensuse.org)
is a great push. OK, all non-SUSE-using customers of ftp.gwdg.de are
paying tax for this, but SUSE had all the last (10? 9? Maybe only 8)
years more then 2/3 of the ftp.gwdg.de output, and now for a hopefully
limited time it is more then 9/10. I consider this a service effort.
If we would achieve this synchronous action (remember: "SUSE-10.0 YOU
time at ftp4 is minute 0 of every hour"), I see a good chance for a major
improvement in service without more stress to the server.
OK, so I do put the following in my crontab:
0 * * * * /usr/bin/online_update -u http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/suse
or am I misreading things?
No no, please not at EVERY hour...
The thought was: if you do, do it at minute 0.
Once a day should be enough.
