TJS,

I just checked the mirror this morning and it seems it is off by a few days on
syncing.

Get that syncing every 4 hours starting with your local midnight, with another
gentoo mirror and I can add you to our mirror listing. Thanks!

Thanks Jeffrey !

I have setup gentoo-portage syncing every 4 hours from rsync.gentoo.org and please check it again.

May I sync from Tier-1 rsync server ?

Regards,
Jin-Shan

For a distfiles mirror, you should NOT be syncing to rsync.gentoo.org every 4 hours. (This will indeed get you banned for syncing too often) You should be syncing to a distfiles mirror listed on our download mirrors page.


Still shows you a few days behind:

Comment 4 Sam Tseng 2006-01-18 17:48:25 UTC
Sorry, my mistake.
Now, I sync "gentoo-portage" from rsync.gentoo.org every 30 minutes and "distfiles" from distro.ibiblio.org every 4 hours.
Please check it again and add our site to download mirrors page. Thanks !
PS. May I have rsync6.tw.gentoo.org name resolve ? :-)

Regards,
Jin-Shan

Per the rsync mirror:
Thanks for helping out Gentoo. I have added the IP you specified in the bug to our access database, please start synching to rsync1.us.gentoo.org per our Rsync document at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/rsync.xml.

I have added you as rsync6.tw.gentoo.org in the rsync.tw.gentoo.org rotation.

As for the distfiles mirror: 
Thanks for helping out Gentoo. I have added your mirror to our list at http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/mirrors.xml. Please start synching from masterdistfiles.gentoo.org as the email I have sent to you instructs.
