hello all, i'd like to make a local mirror of Mandrake (mainly for the security updates, but i don't mind mirroring the ISOs also). this is mainly going to be for internal and local subscriber use. i may make the mirror available to selected IPs upon request (criteria would be, few hops, local peering with upstream ISP).
if anyone's done that, how do you do updates? i'd rather do rsync updates if possible, but wget updates are OK, i guess, or whatever is best. if anyone has a mirror already, i'd love to update from them (similar criteria as above, i wouldn't want to stress your outbound link excessively). although, maybe that doesn't matter too much if i update at around 2AM, when, generally, bandwidth is fast. tiger -- Gerald Timothy Quimpo gquimpo*hotmail.com tiger*sni*ph http://bopolissimus.sni.ph an xcdngl nntrstng jrnl Public Key: "gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 672F4C78" All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by frost. -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
