Does msync-dvd need special autorization?
by João Carlos Mendes Luís 09 Nov '09

09 Nov '09

Hi, I'm trying to setup a new DVD mirror, but no matter whether I use msync.centos.org or msync-dvd.centos.org, the DVD images do not come along. Do I need some special authorization? I did a full start-up refresh from a public mirror, but I'd like to know what is the official procedure to get a primary access to a DVD rsync distribution site. Thanks in advance, Jonny

New Mirror
by Matt Ruzicka 09 Nov '09

09 Nov '09

We have a new mirror set up ready to be added to the public mirror list. Location: Toledo, OH, USA Organization: CISP / Yocolo - http://www.cisp.com Contact: Matt Ruzicka - linuxadmins(a)cisp.com Versions: All Architectures: All DVD: No (open to adding them in the future) HTTP: http://mirror.cisp.com/CentOS/ RSYNC: rsync://mirror.cisp.com/CentOS/<http://mirror.cisp.com/CentOS/> FTP: None Updated 4x a day from us-msync.centos.org Location has multiple OC3s and a burstable 1G circuit, but the server itself will currently be restricted by 2x 100M bonded connections. Maybe bump this to 1G, but need to see the impact of the current configuration before I can get approval for more. Thanks.

DVD's being deleted during rsync process - how to prevent?
by John C. Young 06 Nov '09

06 Nov '09

Hi All, We seem to have a problem with the CentOS DVD's being deleted from the US Centos Mirror RSync download site when an rsync occurs, is there a way to prevent this? I am familiar with using the --exclude "/filename.name" switch in rsync, but since there are (at least) 4 ISO's we need to specify, I do not think that this will work, as it is now, I'm having to recopy the DVD's each morning which is leaving us without them available to users for some time, and a manual process for me. Thanks for any assistance! Regards, John C. Young Managing Director Internet Gateway of South Beach http://www.igsobe.com

New private mirror
by Jason Brooks 06 Nov '09

06 Nov '09

Hello, I would like to build a mirror for the small business I am working for. I saw the note regarding tier 2 servers. Would it be all right if my initial sync were to be run from us-msync.centos.org? Also, just to keep me from re-inventing the wheel, do any of you have a repository file for a local update and base server? I am interested in both direct file as well as http setups. Thanks for your time... --jason

Intermittent issues with: 208.90.224.30
by Adam 06 Nov '09

06 Nov '09

I have been having intermittent issues rsyncing from 208.90.224.30. Here is the error message: us-msync.centos.org: 208.90.224.30 rsync: failed to connect to us-msync.centos.org: Connection refused (111) rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(107) [receiver=2.6.8] It comes and goes, sometimes it works and other times it doesn't. This has been happening for about a week or maybe a little more. Adam

Mirror List questions
by Jim Kusznir 03 Nov '09

03 Nov '09

Hi: I am an "official public mirror" and get a chunk of traffic routed to my mirror. However, I don't appear on the mirror list at: http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=30 anymore. I believe I was listed on that page some time ago... In any case, I now offer http, ftp, and rsync access: http://centos.eecs.wsu.edu/ ftp://centos.eecs.wsu.edu/centos rsync://centos.eecs.wsu.edu/centos I am on I2 and NLR as well as commodity Internet, and it appears I have 1Gbps bandwidth to the world (our OC-12 apparently was upgraded, as far as I can tell), although my local system seems to max out around 30MB/s disk I/O. This is: Washington State University (WSU) Thanks! --Jim

Proposel - jigdo for iso Images
by Uwe Kiewel 02 Nov '09

02 Nov '09

Hi, what do you think about using jigdo for distributing iso Images? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jigdo http://atterer.net/jigdo/ advantages: - save space at mirror because data are now redandant (as rpm's and "inside" the iso images - the webserver does handle small files more efficient than big files - can save bandwith if a download of an iso image aborts and have to be restarted disadvantage: - maybe more requests, for downloading all rpm's to build the iso at client site Happy discussing! Uwe
