Description Alex Orange 2019-06-10 20:30:09 UTC
Please fill in the information below.

 Sponsor Name: University of Utah (Flux Group)
     Location: Salt Lake City, UT
    Bandwidth: At least 100 Mb/s
Admin Contact: Alex Orange <alex.orange@utah.edu>

The mirror can be accessed via the following URLs:

 HTTP: http://gentoo-mirror.flux.utah.edu/
  FTP: Can be added if there is any interest in such
RSYNC: rsync://gentoo-mirror.flux.utah.edu/gentoo-distfiles

IPv6 connectivity [yes v4+v6/yes v6 only/no]: no

There is a limit on concurrent connections [amount/no]: no

Additional comments:
Implemented to address the lack of a valid rsync server nearby. CS's server (http://gentoo.cs.utah.edu/) has permission issues on rsync that they won't fix.

Question:
Should I be running the rsync with checksums option?

I don't mean to be making more noise on this, but according to https://mirrorstats.gentoo.org/distfiles/ gentoo.cs.utah.edu is functionally dead. Perhaps you wouldn't mind switching to a more reliable mirror?

Ping again. Would very much like to bring this mirror online as official. We're using it a fair bit ourselves. Based on my investigation of the mirror list (https://www.gentoo.org/downloads/mirrors/) I'm pretty sure we would be the closest mirror for the rocky mountain region.

On it. I'm sorry for the delay.

Thanks for helping out Gentoo!

I have added your mirror to our list at https://www.gentoo.org/downloads/mirrors/.

Please start syncing from masterdistfiles.gentoo.org as the email I have sent to you instructs.

We would like you to subscribe to the gentoo-mirrors Mailing List by sending an email to gentoo-mirrors+subscribe@lists.gentoo.org, as we send out notifications of updates, releases, and changes in policy to the mirrors.

Please also monitor https://mirrorstats.gentoo.org/rsync/ as this application is used to keep track of the up-to-date nature of our mirrors. Thanks for the hardware and bandwidth!
