Description Daniele Palumbo 2007-02-22 10:02:01 UTC
hi.

we have started mirror.ing.unibo.it with:
- gentoo full source mirror
- rsync mirror
at in Engineering @ unibo
http://www.ing.unibo.it (this one is only in italian, sorry)
http://www.eng.unibo.it/PortaleEn/University/University+Structures/Academic+Structures/schedule/Engineering.htm
http://www.eng.unibo.it/PortaleEn/default.htm

this is out 'node' to the world.
http://www.noc.garr.it/mrtg/RT1.BO1.garr.net/RT1.BO1.garr.net.html

the harware is a dual core dual xeon (dell pe1950, btw).
but mirror.ing.unibi.it is a virtual server on Xen 3.0.4, with (by now, this is a virtual)
1 GB ram
100 GB storage for gentoo mirror.

we decided to put this mirror up for some reasons:
- we have bandwidth (a lot)
- we have more than 50 server (real and virtuals) on gentoo.
- we need an internal mirror, so just put it online and public!

and last:
- unipd mirror is actually 'not good', unina mirror have no rsync

we have the following services:
ftp (anonymous only)
http (lighttpd)
rsync

crontab:
00,30 * * * *      root    []/rsync-gentoo-portage.sh
05,35 * * * *      root    []/rsync-gentoo-fullmirror.sh

by now, portage is syncing to rsync://rsync.de.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage,
source mirror to rsync://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/gentoo-distfiles

please tell me when when i have to change it.

HTH,
Daniele Palumbo daniele.palumbo@mail.ing.unibo.it

Reproducible: Always

Hi Daniele,

Thanks for wanting to help out with a mirror.

I just ran a check and it looks good : 

 * Timestamp on mirror.ing.unibo.it is Sat, 24 Feb 2007 10:08:01 +0000
 * Current time in UTC is Sat Feb 24 11:38:30 UTC 2007

I'll run a few more of these before adding you in. 

Also, please make sure the sources sync only once in 4 hours. Basically your full mirror should look something like 0 00,04,08,12,16,20 (once in four hours). Please look at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/source_mirrors.xml for details.

Also, rsync doesn't seem to be working :

$ rsync mirror.ing.unibo.it::gentoo-portage/
This is rsync[number].it.gentoo.org.

@ERROR: chroot failed
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1386) [receiver=2.6.9]

Can you please look into that? 

Thanks!
