Well, there is no direct possibility to mirror centos-vault, at least not with rsync (you can mirror http content if you want). Each time I see people pointing their yum config to vault I want to cry ...
*but* because it's a free world and that people can run machines without any security updates (as long as they don't complain , but still a *really* bad idea ...), vault.centos.org nodes exist
As stated in the http://vault.centos.org/notonvault.html file, two external mirrors are providing full access to Vault content, and also available through rsync :
mirror.nsc.liu.se::centos-store/ mirror.symnds.com::CentOS-vault-full/
Hi Fabian,
I've changed rsync to mirror.symnds.com::CentOS-vault-full; centos-vault on bay.uchicago.edu is now in sync (the sync is performed once a day, which for vault is sufficient IMHO, let me know if you want be do it more often), and it is accessible as:
http://bay.uchicago.edu/centos-vault rsync://bay.uchicago.edu/centos-vault ftp://bay.uchicago.edu/centos-vault
I don't mind if you add pointers to the above for public use (the machine has 3 Gbps uplink speed currently, will probably be upgraded to 10 Gbps within a year or so, no traffic shaping was necessary so far). This same machine serves CentOS public mirror (and a few more public mirrors as well).
Thanks a lot for you help and for the great job you guys are doing!
Valeri
