Fabian,

Thanks for wanting to help Gentoo with a mirror.

I've added you to our automatic mirror test system and if everything goes fine, you will be listed as a mirror on our website on or before 15 Oct 2008.

Please let me know the following :

1) What name you would like to be called as on our website?

2) What are the hardware specs of the server? How many concurrent users do you plan to support?

Fabian,

Please make sure the server is syncing once every 4 hours as mentioned at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/source_mirrors.xml 

We're getting errors for the distfiles directory and the releases directory is out of date by a month.

We are having problem rsync with other public servers.We keep getting rejected.Maybe private mirror will be better.

Please read http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/source_mirrors.xml

Then setup the mirror, make sure it is syncing correctly and re-open this bug.
