Bug 19435 – storeroom.is.co.za / ftp.is.co.za can no longer access rsync1.us.gentoo.org

• Product: Mirrors
• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

[Description Oskar Pearson 2003-04-16 15:51:10 UTC]

I believe ftp.is.co.za used to be an official portage mirror. We used to be 
able to mirror from rsync1.us.gentoo.org, at least.

We now receive a "connection refused" message: I'm unsure if this is a general 
problem, or if it means the mirror status has been revoked. I'm presuming the 
latter.

I've just cleaned up a disk space problem that would have meant our mirror was 
out of date. If this was the problem, please can you re-enable us? I've just 
fixed this, and are now temporarily mirroring from the dynamic rsync.gentoo.org 
address.

storeroom.is.co.za is the machine responsible for mirroring: it mirrors to an 
NFS share that ftp.is.co.za then serves from. If you thus allow us access once 
more, please allow us connections from storeroom.is.co.za, rather than 
ftp.is.co.za.

If I'm mistaken about ftp.is.co.za being an official mirror, please let me know!

Thanks!

Oskar

196.4.160.77 doesn't seem to be configured properly.  Can you review
"How to Mirror Gentoo - Rsync" (http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/rsync.xml)
and post back after you've updated/verified the configuration?

Thanks.

Any updates?

Hi

At the moment is.co.za can't provide an rsync server to the general
world, and are thus not eligible for access to the official rsync server
itself. All is thus fine, and I'm going to close this ticket;

Thanks very much for the help!
