[Description George Tenney 2003-09-29 14:18:50 UTC]

I have created a Gentoo Source mirror available at http://gentoo.netnitco.net
which is syncing against ibiblio every 4 hours (starting at midnight GMT -0500)
as stated in the Gentoo source mirror guide.

The mirror is also available at
ftp://gentoo.netnitco.net/pub/mirrors/gentoo/source/ and could also be made
available via rsync.

I'm sending you some instructions on accessing our private distfiles mirror.
 
Please update your scripts to point to this mirror.

Looks like you're syncing with OSU now, is that correct?

[Comment 3 George Tenney 2003-10-20 07:46:37 UTC]

I've been syncing against ftp.ussg.iu.edu since we were experiencing problems
with OSU.  I checked this morning and I'm able to connect to OSU again, so
I've modified our scripts accordingly.

Do you want me to list the rsync option, or just http & ftp?

[Comment 5 George Tenney 2003-10-21 02:06:41 UTC]

I would prefer just the HTTP and FTP options to be listed.  My RSYNC load
for Portage is pretty descent plus there are a couple of companies doing
secondary mirroring off my server, so, I would rather reserve those CPU cycles
for Portage and my secondary mirrors.

[Comment 6 Peter Penkala 2003-10-21 20:01:18 UTC]

I've added the FTP and HTTP links to our mirrors page and 
subscribed <[e-mail]> to our gentoo-mirrors 
mailing list, where we announce and discuss things related 
to the gentoo system of mirrors.

Thanks for helping to support gentoo linux.
