Nick
I am not sure how to set up the rsync or the lock files.
I was wondering if you can give me direction on that I looked all over and I
did see some ways of doing it.
But I want to set up rsync for all the versions. Most of the tutorials are
to set up for just let say version 5.
Also not sure how to set up the lock files.
I am running centos on this box with cpanel.
I was wondering if you can send me the commands to get this all set up
right.
As for cron that is working it is adding files to the mirror. But very slow.
I want to get this done and list it in the mirror list.
Also the ftp cpanel wont let me set up the ftp without a user and password.
Is there a way around that.
I want to have all centos versions with the dvd versions as well.
mirror again is:

Thank you for your time.

Hello,
We have created a new CentOS mirror in Pakistan using the instructions
at http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=22.
Here is the relevant information about our mirror:
HTTP URL: http://mirror-cybernet.lums.edu.pk/pub/centos/
FTP URL: ftp://mirror-cybernet.lums.edu.pk/pub/centos/
RSYNC URL: rsync://mirror-cybernet.lums.edu.pk/pub/centos/
Sync frequency: 3 times a day
Location: Lahore, Pakistan
Bandwidth available: No known limit. (The mirror is located on
Cybernet's national network in Pakistan).
Sponsoring Organization: LUMS-Cybernet Mirror Service
(http://mirror-cybernet.lums.edu.pk) a collaborative effort between
the Lahore University of Management Sciences (http://www.lums.edu.pk)
and Cyber Internet Services (http://www.cyber.net.pk)

To whom it may concern:
I set up a mirror for centos but I am not sure if I did it right.
the address is http://mirror.bluethundercomputers.net/centos
I set up cron to update every 4 hours dont know if this is to much or not.
Or should I set it to every 6 hours instead??
The cron I set is: rsync -aqzH --delete us-msync.centos.org::CentOS
/home/bluethun/public_html/mirror/centos
I did put the files in there but some of them are empty along with it only
going up to centos 3.
Is this all I had to do and the system will update over time??
Did I miss a step??
Any help you can give I would be greatful.
Also how do I set it up to be ftp and rsyc??
I want it to be listed in the mirror list thanks again.

It does not, but it could have been worded better, and in fact I
believe the wording was updated. Also, the wording essentially has
no real effect. First, that section applies only to the Fedora system
as a whole. Paragraph 1 of the Fedora license states that each piece
may be distributed under the GPL or other applicable license. So each
package is still GPL, just the ISOs, basically, are export restricted,
according to the Fedora license.
In section 5 of GPL v3 you'll find:
Inclusion of a covered work in an aggregate does not cause this
License to apply to the other parts of the aggregate.
Under section 5, Fedora could use any license they wish for the
aggregate (ISO) without violating the GPL. For that reason, it
doesn't violate the GPL, since the GPL says they can license the
ISO any way they wish, so long as each package is GPL.
As far as the actual effect, recall that the GPL, like any
license, is only the AUTHOR giving you THEIR permission to do
certain things. That doesn't imply that the GOVERNMENT also gives
THEIR permission. So while the GPL license may not restrict export,
US law may in some cases. Neither Fedora nor anyone else can give
you permission to violate the law, so those export restrictions are
in place no matter what Fedora says.
In reality, if you violate the law and the license by exporting
an ISO, Fedora isn't going to come after you. They are just covering
their butts legally by not being clear that they are not giving you
permission to violate the law. US law says that they can't indirectly
export it, by giving it to you and telling you that you can export it.
It may have been better to word it as a warning rather than a
restriction, simply warning the user that exporting certain packages
may be illegal.
In any event, paragraph 1 of the Fedora license does all that's
necesary under the GPL when it grants you a GPL license, using
these words:
This agreement does not limit User's rights under, or grant
User rights that supersede, the license terms of any particular
component.

First:
We should mention about a mistake in website name above: it is
'www.openmirror.ir' not 'www.openmirrir.ir'. We are sorry about this
problem.
Second:
We are the first team from Iran to become as a mirror for CentOS so we are
interested in becoming as an Iranian mirror although the server is in
Germany.
