Re: creating a local cvsup mirror.

2005-05-03 Thread Volker Kindermann
Hi Derrick,

I want to create a local mirror for my internal freebsd systems. I seem
to be confusing articles that are 'how to mirror' and 'how to be a
mirror'. Is there some details/info out there that could be of help? I
would have thought it would be enough to be running ports/net/cvsup-
mirror would be enough on the server, and then the clients here would
use 'cvsup -h my_cvs_server ports-all' but I end up seeing:
May  2 12:40:49 cvs cvsupd[57822]: =3 Unknown collection ports-all
So if someone can clarify/point/whatever, much appreciated.
I did exactly the same as you want. I used the following article as a 
guideline:

Hmm. OK worked this time no problem.

my next Q, is what do I need to do to enable my 5.X box have the source
for a 4.X box?

check out /usr/ports/net/cvsup-mirror/
it sets up a local cvsup mirror which you can use locally

Cheers
