We would like to provide an official gentoo portage rsync mirror The server is now setup at rsync.gentoo.gr(62.38.102.66) Machine Details CPU: 1GMz RAM: 512Mb MAX Connections: 15 Bandwidth : 10Mbps full duplex bandwidth. Thanks, Gregory Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
I've added 62.38.102.66 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. Thanks.
Hello Done, now rsync.gentoo.gr cron jobs point to rsync1.us.gentoo.org Thanks :)

Hello again I have a little problem with rsync :( Can please check that you added 62.38.102.66 to the access list for rsync1.us.gentoo.org penguin proftpd # host rsync.gentoo.gr rsync.gentoo.gr is an alias for penguin.gentoo.gr. penguin.gentoo.gr has address 62.38.102.66 penguin proftpd #
I only partially added it. I've fixed that, so it should be OK now.
There have been a few glitches so far. Can you see if there are any errors on your end? The first error ("timestamp missing") could have been from my end, but other mirrors I'm currently testing didn't have the problem. Either I couldn't connect to the server, or the timestamp was missing. The other was a missed sync. Otherwise, the syncs have been OK. Checked (UTC) Timestamp (all times in date -uR format) ================================================ 02:20:06 timestamp missing 21:20:08 Thu, 14 Aug 2003 20:31:01 +0000 (expected 21:00)
Hello Sorry for the delayed answer, I was on vacation :) No, i don't see any errors on my end. Have you notice other errors from 14/08 ? PS We would like to provide also an official gentoo distfiles mirror site, I must open new bug report ? it will be hosting on the same server as rsync.gentoo.gr
There have been a couple more misses since the 14th. Individually, they aren't an issue, but combined, they are a concern. Here's what I have since then. "..." indicates no problems for the time period not listed. In this particular case, "???" is a period when I stopped checking. Checked (UTC) Timestamp ================================================ 16:20:03 timestamp missing (Friday, 15 Aug) ... 23:20:04 Sun, 17 Aug 2003 22:59:00 +0000 ??? 03:50:05 Mon, 18 Aug 2003 03:30:00 +0000 04:20:04 Mon, 18 Aug 2003 03:59:00 +0000 04:53:10 timestamp missing 22:20:04 Mon, 18 Aug 2003 21:59:00 +0000 Source mirrors are handled seperately, so yes, please open a new bug for that. We're currently behind with getting source mirrors up, so it might be a while before we get to it.
Hello Have you notice other errors from last time .I don't see connections from you any more
After my last post I had stopped checking. I had asked someone else to take a look, but they probably haven't had a chance to look into the problem. I just did another check, which was current, so I'll monitor again for a while. Unfortunately, I recently learned of a problem on our end that may be causing the problem. rsync1.us is running out of RAM during the process when all the mirrors try to sync. We are working on removing some non-rsync functions from that server to see if it helps. Also, we are working on replacing the server entirely, but that won't happen for another 3 months or so. If the syncs continue to be incosistant, we may have to hold off on adding the mirror until we can solve the problem. I'll post back in about 24 hours with an update.
The stars have apparently aligned properly :D. Over 3 days, the server had only 1 possible problem, but that could have been my end. This server is now rsync2.gr.gentoo.org. Please update the motd file to include that information. I've subscribed <mirroradm@gentoo.gr> to our gentoo-mirrors mailing list (low volume). This list is used to discuss mirror-related issues. Thanks for supporting Gentoo. I just happened to notice that we have "Gregory Staggel" listed as the contact for rsync1.gr. Both rsync1.gr and rsync2.gr are yours? Would you prefer to have one email subscribed to the list? For rsycn1.gr we have <gstag@hol.gr>.
Hello If it is not problem for you I prefer to have both emails subscribe to the list gstag@hol.gr is my business email address and gstag@gentoo.gr my personal I support gentoo with 2 servers business and personal
No problem at all. gstag@gentoo.gr is also on the list. Thanks for supporting Gentoo.
Sorry for the inconvenience :( can you please remove gstag@gentoo.gr from the list I misunderstood your previous mail. Contact for rsync1.gr is gstag@hol.gr Contact for rsync2.gr is only mirroradm@gentoo.gr Thanks
No problem at all. gstag@gentoo.gr removed and mirroradm@gentoo.gr added.
Hello again :) Can you tell me why rsync.gentoo.gr (62.38.102.66) isn't on rsync.europe.gentoo.org ? I have to open new bug report for that ? ---- Gregory
Each rotation is capable of holding a limited number of hosts. rsync.europe is currently full.
