We have setup a server to provide both a source and rsync mirror for Gentoo. We're an ISP based in Linz, Austria, which is also where the server is located. We have currently set up access at the following URLs, but are of course open to adjusting them at your recommendation. Source: http://gentoo.lagis.at/ ftp://gentoo.lagis.at/ rsync://gentoo.lagis.at/gentoo-distfiles/ rsync: rsync://gentoo.lagis.at/gentoo-portage/
Thanks for wanting to help Gentoo with a mirror. I've added your mirror to our test system and we'll keep you updated on it's progress. In the meanwhile I'd like the following information : 1) Hardware Specs of the server 2) Bandwidth Specs 3) Name of the mirror (that we use for listing on the website) 4) How many concurrent users will you be supporting? Thanks!

There are currently no limits on concurrent rsync users as we don't know how many the server can handle. What do you suggest?
I see a slight lag on rsync, can you change the server you sync from rsync.de.gentoo.org or rsync1.de.gentoo.org? *ERROR* : gentoo-portage mirror is lagging by over 40 mins, lag is : 55.47 mins Timestamp on Mirror : Wed, 01 Oct 2008 02:15:01 +0000 Current time in UTC : Wed, 01 Oct 2008 03:10:29 +0000 Distfiles is all good. gentoo.lagis.at is in sync, current delta : 3.17 hours Timestamp on Mirror : Wed, 01 Oct 2008 00:00:01 +0000 Current time in UTC : Wed, 01 Oct 2008 03:10:29 +0000

There's still a little lag on the portage mirror, but I'll overlook that for now and add you in. gentoo-portage: *ERROR* : gentoo-portage mirror is lagging by over 40 mins, lag is : 55.1 mins Timestamp on Mirror : Tue, 07 Oct 2008 02:15:01 +0000 Current time in UTC : Tue, 07 Oct 2008 03:10:07 +0000 distfiles: gentoo.lagis.at is in sync, current delta : 3.0 hours Timestamp on Mirror : Tue, 07 Oct 2008 00:10:02 +0000 Current time in UTC : Tue, 07 Oct 2008 03:10:07 +0000 Thanks for helping out Gentoo. I have added the IP 83.164.192.205 to our access database, please start syncing to rsync1.us.gentoo.org per our Rsync document at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/rsync.xml.
