Comment 1 Christian Jiresjö 2003-05-08 07:45:56 UTC
We att högskolan Trollhättan would like to become official mirror for both
portage and disfiles. Syncing according to the rules laid out under documentation.

gentoo-x86-portage      Gentoo Linux Portage tree
gentoo-portage  Gentoo Linux Portage tree mirror
available via rsync://ds.thn.htu.se

and distfiles available vie http://ds.thn.htu.se/linux/gentoo

my official address is christian.jiresjo@htu.se but it seems i am not able to
recieve mail from @gentoo.org att that location so communicate through the
address i used for bugzilla.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 2 Thomas Stibor 2003-05-08 08:46:46 UTC
the distfiles are available via http://mirrors.sec.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/gentoo.

Since we also provide a rsync portage mirror.
Please add the IP 141.12.220.13 (mirrors.sec.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de) to the
primary rsync portage server (rsync1.us.gentoo.org) that we can
syncing with rsync1.us.gentoo.org.

When trying to use gentoo-portage, I receive an error message.
Could you look into it?

Thanks.

Fixed the typo that was causing it.

Where is timestamp.chk generated because mine looks weird. Says

Comment 6 Kurt Lieber (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-06-05 08:23:10 UTC
The source files do not appear to have been updated since May 19th.  Can you check your scripts and ensure they are syncing every 4 hours, starting at 0000 UTC?

Thanks.
Comment 7 Peter Penkala gentoo-dev 2003-06-05 08:28:39 UTC
The timestamp.chk file is generated on one of our servers.  Servers pull it
during syncing.  Sometimes there are delays when syncing with servers other
than rsync1.us.

I've added 141.12.220.13 to the access list for rsync1.us.gentoo.org.
Please update your rsync cron jobs to point to rsync1.us.gentoo.org
and post back here when you've done so.  We'll monitor the server 
for a couple days to make sure things are working fine and then add 
it to the rotation.

Also, I'd like to verify that ntp is running, what the upstream connection
is along with the CPU & RAM.

Thanks.
Comment 8 Christian Jiresjö 2003-06-05 11:04:21 UTC
141.12.220.13 migth be worthy of getting added but that belongs in another thread. 
ds.thn.htu.se is 193.10.192.105 which is the ip that should be added to rsync1 if you want to let us in.

upstream connection is a 100 Megabit comming of a 2 Gigabit connection.
Machine is currently a 466 Mhz Celeron (socket 370 on a slot 1 converter) with 128  M but if i can only find a slot 1 motherboard that can handle pIII(among our current stock or donation) it might get upgraded to a pIII 600 with 256 or 384M.

I will lock in to why the distfiles(source) mirror have fallen behind
Comment 9 Peter Penkala gentoo-dev 2003-06-05 12:09:08 UTC
Added 193.10.192.105.
Comment 10 Kurt Lieber (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-07-16 10:50:54 UTC
I've added the source mirror to our list of mirrors on:

http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/mirrors.xml

It should show up on the site within 4 hours.

Additionally, I've sent instructions on accessing our private distfiles mirror to slaugther@linux.nu.  Please update your scripts to use this mirror to sync from.

Finally, I've subscribed slaugther@linux.nu to our gentoo mirrors mailing list, which is a low volume list that we use to announce items related to the gentoo system of mirrors. 

thank you for helping to support gentoo linux.
Comment 11 Corey Shields 2003-07-17 12:55:43 UTC
193.10.192.105 has been added as rsync1.se.gentoo.org (and is also in the new rsync.se.gentoo.org round robin set).

closing this bug.

Thanks for your time and resources.

Cheers!
