Kernel.org heads up
by J.H. 07 Feb '08

07 Feb '08

Hey everyone, Just a quick heads up since it seems to have come to be an issue - Kernel.org is down one of the mirror machines due to an array trying to get rebuilt after a failed drive. If your using kernel.org for syncing expect delays, slowdowns and the inevitable $ rsync mirrors.kernel.org:: rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [receiver] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(463) [receiver=2.6.8] which means we either are serving as many connections as we allow for (I've upped it some) or we've exceeded our load threshold and are denying new connections until the load drops. We should have this settled soon - it's just taking us longer than we expected. - John 'Warthog9' Hawley

What's wrong with DVD isos and mirrors in general?
by Sergio Belkin 07 Feb '08

07 Feb '08

Hi, I've tried to download Centos 5.1 x86_64 DVD.iso from several mirrors but with no sucess... that file has only 141M. Could you recommend me some nice mirror? :) I've tried to install via netinstall but always there was some issue, missing packages, broken installation... Now I am downloading 1st CD and then I'll try a minimal installation... thanks in advance! -- Sergio Belkin Teléfonos 15-6119-2226 // 4788-8605 ----------------------------------------

Replacing my mirror server
by Mike Zanker 05 Feb '08

05 Feb '08

I've just ordered a new server to replace centos.zanker.org (UK mirror) - this will have plenty of disk space allowing me to host a full mirror. I'm just wondering what's the best version of CentOS to install on it, bearing in mind that I might want to host the DVDs at some point. I'll need a version of apache that supports files greater than 2GB - will the CentOS 5.1 apache be OK for this? Should I install the 32-bit or 64-bit CentOS? I'd also be interested to know what people who host the DVDs are seeing bandwidth-wise - I have 3TB a month to play with... Thanks in advance, Mike
