Hi, New rsync mirror here in US, IL, Chicago. Server info - server name: beer.ux6.net ip: 66.227.96.57 contact: Mikhail <miha@ghuug.org> bandwidth: 100mbps, fully burstable max connections: 12 specs: amd duron 1ghz, 256ram, 80gb IDE hdd. updated every 30 mins as supposed, currently syncing from rsync7.us.gentoo.org::gentoo-portage regards, Mikhail. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
The last rsync was "Tue, 03 Jun 2003 03:00:00 +0000" and should have been 03:30. Can you check for errors and confirm that ntp is running? Thanks.
Server time wasn't set to ntp, so probably that's why. Now it has been set to ntp (with nist1-dc.glassey.com). So hopefully this corrects the problem. Mikhail.
I've added 66.227.96.57 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. Thanks.
Done - Now syncing with rsync1.us.gentoo.org Mikhail.
Your mirror is updating 5 minutes early (which would in theory make for a 25 minute stale mirror).

Our apologies for the delay in getting back to you. There have been some recent transitions and a backlog of bugs to fix. We hope to get you added as soon as you're running straight. Cheers! -Corey
ok, it appears was problem with system's clock - it got out of sync. Now got time from clock.fmt.he.net via netdate I have setup cron job to get time every 6 hours, so it should be pretty in sync now with time server. I do not want to run ntpd on the server itself, so using netdate every 6 hours should be enough. Please check now if I'm syncing in the right period of time.
I'm adding this back on my monitor list. If anyone else is already monitoring it, let me know.
I've added the server as rsync9.us.gentoo.org. Please update your motd to include that info. I've also subscribed miha@ghuug.org to our low volume mirrors mailing list. Thanks for supportig Gentoo.
Peter, Thanks. I will modify rsync's motd now and note that I'm official gentoo mirror. ALso, I've checked DNS and rsync9.us.gentoo.org is still not added to your round-robin dns. Could you check on this? regards, Mikhail.
Perhaps its just taking some time to propagate. Seems to be working OK here. Let me know if the problem persists. # host rsync9.us.gentoo.org rsync9.us.gentoo.org has address 66.227.96.57
Peter, Here is what I mean: (sorry for long output) miha@home miha $ nslookup -sil rsync.us.gentoo.org Server: 192.168.0.1 Address: 192.168.0.1#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: rsync.us.gentoo.org Address: 66.132.32.20 Name: rsync.us.gentoo.org Address: 66.227.104.102 Name: rsync.us.gentoo.org Address: 128.227.212.225 Name: rsync.us.gentoo.org Address: 130.207.108.134 Name: rsync.us.gentoo.org Address: 146.186.218.75 Name: rsync.us.gentoo.org Address: 168.215.173.144 Name: rsync.us.gentoo.org Address: 206.169.166.57 Name: rsync.us.gentoo.org Address: 207.234.248.157 Name: rsync.us.gentoo.org Address: 208.41.22.116 Name: rsync.us.gentoo.org Address: 216.176.132.235 Name: rsync.us.gentoo.org Address: 64.113.39.7 Name: rsync.us.gentoo.org Address: 64.246.0.222 Name: rsync.us.gentoo.org Address: 66.11.11.187 miha@home miha $ all is fine, however: miha@home miha $ nslookup -sil rsync.us.gentoo.org|grep 66.227.96.57 miha@home miha $ meaning that 66.227.96.57 is not added to round-robin dns. regards, Mikhail.
Woops. Looks like I forgot to add it. It's in there now, so should show up soon.
