- - - < s n i p > - - - If you are using a newer version of Mandrake Linux, you may want to look at the following packages: [1] urpmi.setup This tools helps user to setup urpmi when using mirror. This is a perl script to help you to setup urpmi. First it looks at your system, find your mandrake version and architecture, it retrieves by http a list of mirrors. For each type of repository, it asks you which mirror you want to use. A default url is set in /etc/urpmi/mirror.config, but you can use another one. A second package contains all web component to make your own list of mirrors. You can also find a web page that provides the urpmi.addmedia commands. At that time, you can get a look at it at http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon. [2] urpmi.setup-web This package the web page (write in php) to make your own list of mirror. It contain also a dynamic page to give right urpmi.addmedia command. For more information, you may visit http://nanardon.homelinux.org/urpmi.setup/ Good luck! =) --- MARVIN T.
