I am going over ancient tickets.

o trace file:
  I notice http://ftp.leg.uct.ac.za/debian/project/trace/XXX
  does not contain much information.  Are you using our ftpsync script
  to mirror Debian?  It should produce better trace files.
  http://ftp.leg.uct.ac.za/debian/project/ftpsync/ftpsync-current.tar.gz

o There is a mismatch between your tracefile name in
  http://ftp.leg.uct.ac.za/debian/project/trace/ and your site-name.  Can you 
please
  have the tracefile name be the same as the site name?  I think you can
  accomplish this by setting MIRRORNAME= in ftpsync.conf.

o we recommend mirrors not sync directly from service aliases such as
  ftp..debian.org.  Maybe change your config to sync from
  debian.inf.tu-dresden.de (which is the same host)?

o the mirror seems to be a few days out of date.  How often does it
  sync?

Cheers,

Thanks for supporting Debian through mirroring it.

 Site: ftp.leg.uct.ac.za

Please use the recommended tool ftpsync:
http://www.debian.org/mirror/ftpmirror#how

Without appropriate rsync calls, the mirror is guaranteed to be broken from
users POV during updates.

ftpsync should be used for /debian/ (ftpsync.conf) and /debian-backports
(ftpsync-backports.conf).

 Comment: Heavily shaped outbound traffic

By outbound you mean traffic outside South Africa, or outside the university ?

Thanks.
