Do you have the source side syncing every 4 hours? The last update was at "Fri, 29 Aug 2003 06:55:00 +0000" (about 10 hours ago).
Now it is synced every 4 hours. (it was every 12 hours due a typo in the crontab) fixed.
I recorded a sync for 29 Aug at 19:55. 4 hours later should be approximately 00:00 (date -uR). Have you noticed any errors, or am I off on times?
Here follow the 4 last lines of my crontab logfile for the gentoo rsync: Aug 30 00:00:00 aptix CROND[19375]: (root) CMD (/usr/local/bin/gentoo-mirror) Aug 30 04:00:00 aptix CROND[23824]: (root) CMD (/usr/local/bin/gentoo-mirror) Aug 30 08:00:00 aptix CROND[28554]: (root) CMD (/usr/local/bin/gentoo-mirror) Aug 30 12:00:00 aptix CROND[32591]: (root) CMD (/usr/local/bin/gentoo-mirror) If you check the 4 last rsync from us, they should be every 4 hours . For me it is good since Aug 30 00:00:00 CET (since 17 hours now) Best regards, Salim
I'm sending some instructions on accessing our private distfiles mirror. Let me know once you've updated your scripts to point to this server. I'll make a couple of checks, and then we'll get it added to the mirrors page. Thanks.
I've updated our mirrors page to include this server. The changes should be visible within the next day or so. Also, I've subscribed <salim@gasmi.net> to our gentoo-mirrors mailing list (low volume). This list is used to discuss mirror-related issues. Thanks for supporting Gentoo.
