A new full gentoo mirror is offered in Barcelona (Spain) located at the Politechnic University of Catalonia (UPC): P4 2.8GHz, 1.5G RAM, 100Mbps IP:147.83.169.250 DNS: gentoo-euetib.upc.edu (DNS translation should be available today or tomorrow at last). By now the server is fully operative and syncs once a day at 0:00 Spain local time, in order not to be banned. LAN speed will be upgraded to 1Gbps soon. Hope it'll be welcome! Reproducible: Always
DNS translation has been finally set to gentoo-euetib.upc.es and is fully operative.
Is there anybody listening? If you are testeing the mirror, please let me know (it also works as an rsync mirror). I have registered a continued access from IP 66.249.72.194, so I have denied access to this IP for some time...
Jordi, Thanks for wanting to help Gentoo out with a mirror. You will need to sync every 4 hours as mentioned in the http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/source_mirrors.xml Once that's setup, update the bug and I'll check a few times before adding you in.
These are good news! Done. First sync performed around 12PM (Spain local time) against ftp.ussg.iu.edu::gentoo-distfiles.
Now there is a gigabit connection to the server, so you should download faster.
Is there any problem with the server that you may have detected during your tests? In that case please let me know so I can fix it. > > Once that's setup, update the bug and I'll check a few times before adding you > in. >
Looks okay: * Timestamp on gentoo-euetib.upc.es is Sat, 05 Jul 2008 12:38:22 +0000 * Current time in UTC is Sat Jul 5 16:09:10 UTC 2008
And btw, you do releases and other stuff as well, so your mirror is a full one :)
Yeah, all good so far : gentoo-euetib.upc.es/mirror/gentoo/ is in sync, current lag : 2.52 hours Timestamp on Mirror : Mon, 07 Jul 2008 00:39:22 +0000 Current time in UTC : Mon, 07 Jul 2008 03:10:49 +0000 One more check before I add you in.
Are the following rsync options optimum? Or would you perhaps add/delete any one? rsync -t --recursive -P -D --verbose \ --delete --delete-after --links -q --perms \ ftp.ussg.iu.edu::gentoo-distfiles \ /dades/www/localhost/htdocs/mirror/gentoo Thanks!
You can check our set of rsync options in the email I've sent you. All good, adding you in! gentoo-euetib.upc.es/mirror/gentoo/ is in sync, current delta : 3.02 hours Timestamp on Mirror : Sun, 13 Jul 2008 00:10:02 +0000 Current time in UTC : Sun, 13 Jul 2008 03:10:57 +0000 Thanks for helping out Gentoo. I have added your mirror to our list at http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/mirrors.xml. Please start syncing from masterdistfiles.gentoo.org as the email I have sent to you instructs. We would like you to subscribe to the gentoo-mirrors Mailing List by sending an email to gentoo-mirrors-subscribe@lists.gentoo.org, as we send out notifications of updates, releases, and changes in policy to the mirrors. Please also monitor http://mirrorstats.gentoo.org as this application is used to keep track of the up-to-date nature of our mirrors. Once again, thanks for the hardware and bandwidth!
