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

Look at the following:

I've stuck with a weird problem...
I can't download "big" files, I mean, I can't download well DVD iso files, for
example, if I try download any file of
http://linux.cucea.udg.mx/geeklog/staticpages/index.php?page=20080123170324…
I get something so:
wget

257M??? Why other iso files has similar problem....
At first glance, I think that my wireless router was putting a limit, but then
I connect directly to my ISP... I'm not behind a proxy (well, I don't if my
ISP has one) but it's a recent
problem, please could say me what's wrong?
Same problem using either Mandriva 2008 or Fedora 8 :(

It cannot be coincidence that almost all stale mirrors are

Hi Alex
You can use CentOS master server bellow to sync your mirror:
msync.centos.org::CentOS [Official Full Master for CentOS]
eu-msync.centos.org::CentOS [EU users may wish to use]
us-msync.centos.org::CentOS [US users may wish to use]
My own new server is now using msync.centos.org, speed is good enough!.
Command from My Corntab Entry:
41 01,07,13,19 * * * * /usr/bin/rsync -azqH --delete-before --partial --stats --bwlimit=1280
msync.centos.org::CentOS /storage/mirrors/linux/centos/ | mail -s "My CentOS mirror Status"
centos-mirror-status(a)bauani.org
Using 10MB/s Pipe to sync with masters.

Hi Guys,
It looks like the information on
http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=13 is a little
dated. :( Would it be possible to get this updated please, or is it
automatically generated and something I can influence from my end?
EU England Bytemark 4 5 i386 alpha x86_64 no HTTP FTP RSYNC
We currently mirror all the releases, but just for i386 and x86_64
architectures. Additionally we don't mirror .ISOs :)
You should be able to peek at what we mirror via;
http://mirror.bytemark.co.uk/centos/
Additionally, could we please get access to your master mirror so
we're not sync'ing off another Tier 1? Up until lately we were using
Belnet but they've had some disk issues with their mirror recently and
that kinda broke things :'(
If anyone notices anything wrong with the mirror, feel free to send me
a message off-list and I'll look into things.
Kind Regards,
Alex Howells
