Hello,
I have set up and did the initial sync for a new mirror in West Virginia.
After looking at the mirrors list, I believe this is the first mirror to be
located in WV
HTTP: http://centos.mirrors.wvstateu.edu
Sync schedule: Every 12 hrs
Bandwidth: 300Mbps
Location: Institute, WV, USA
Sponsor: West Virginia State University
Sponsor URL: www.wvstateu.edu
IP to authorize: 192.73.23.18
Email contact: kcarsey(a)wvstateu.edu
Also, I am having issues getting a good rsync script working with a lock
file. Could someone provide a working example that I could modify to fit
my configuration? Would be much appreciated!
All,
My intentions are to establish a public mirror for CentOS content. My
details are below as per the instructions on the Wiki.
HTTP: http://mirror.redsox.cc/pub/CentOS
FTP: NO FTP ACCESS
RSYNC: rsync://mirror.redsox.cc/pub/CentOS
Sync schedule: Every 4 Hours
Bandwidth: 1 Gbps Symmetrical Service
Location: Apex, North Carolina
Sponsor: None
Sponsor URL: None
IP to authorize: 162.229.180.109

Fabian: See also #centos-mirror. I posted this information also to the
mailing list to retain a paper trail of the changes.
I noticed that some mirrors have changed their ftp and rsync URLs. Here
are the apparent new ones:
old: ftp://mirror.nus.edu.sg/pub/centos/
new: ftp://mirror.nus.edu.sg/html/centos/
old: ftp://mirror.inode.at/data/centos/
new: ftp://mirror.inode.at/centos/
old: ftp://centos.mirror.transip.nl/Centos/
new: ftp://centos.mirror.transip.nl/centos/
old: ftp://ftp.mirror.ukhost4u.com/
new: ftp://ftp.mirror.ukhost4u.com/centos/
old: ftp://centos.mirror.crucial.com.au/
new: ftp://centos.mirror.crucial.com.au/centos/
old: ftp://mirrors.ucr.ac.cr/pub/centos/
new: ftp://mirrors.ucr.ac.cr/centos/
old: rsync://ftp.byfly.by/pub/CentOS/
new: rsync://ftp.byfly.by/CentOS/
old: rsync://mirror.crazynetwork.it/centos/
new: rsync://mirror.crazynetwork.it/CentOS/
old: rsync://ftp.pbone.net/pub/centos/
new: rsync://ftp.pbone.net/centos/
old: rsync://mirrors-ru.go-parts.com/centos/
new: rsync://mirrors-ru.go-parts.com/mirrors/centos/
old: rsync://centos.mirror.lstn.net/
new: rsync://centos.mirror.lstn.net/centos/
Sadly this does not mean that all the other ftp and rsync links would
work. There were numerous "connection refused", "login incorrect",
"connection timed out", "permission denied" etc errors, but I guess I'll
save them for some other posting.
Is there a way to log who and whats been yum updated from your mirror, similar to that of how the xinetd rsync daemon tracks who's mirroring from you in, for example, /var/log/rsync.log?
For example, right now several folks are yum updating from me(repo.atlantic.net), but I can only see it by tcpdumping.

Evening all.
I was doing some poking around with some centos servers this evening and I wanted to try and understand what type of smarts are behind mirrorlist.centos.org.
I know this has been covered before (somewhat). I know there is no way (at present) to "lock" a server on our network down to only using a specific mirror (short of hard coding the mirror URL into the yum repo file). I am aware of such capabilities when using mirrormanager, but we aren't there yet.
As a result, when using the default method of fastestmirrors, I will generally be sent to a mirror that is close to me.
However, I also know there is some level of geo-smarts involved. Usually there is a good chance I will be sent to a mirror within the same country as my server, but not always. When querying mirrorlist, 10 results are returned as expected However out of those 10 results I find that:
7 of the mirrors are in the same country as my server (Australia)
The remaining three are in three separate countries (USA, Canada, Ireland).
If I wait a short while and query mirrorlist again, I get different results:
8 of the mirrors are in the same country as my server (Australia). Interestingly out of these 8 mirrors, one is shown twice (first for HTTP then again for FTP)
The remaining two mirrors are in Canada and Japan
It appears to alternate between 7 and 8 local mirrors, at least from all the testing I have done. With 2-3 mirrors in random countries.
Here is what I found interesting. When performing the same tests from servers in other countries (UK and USA), every time I queried mirrorlist, all 10 mirrors returned were local to the server (ie USA server was always provided 10 mirrors located in USA, and UK server was always provided 10 mirrors in UK)
Soooooo what I was wondering is how the initial list is determined? Obviously there is some level of geo-smarts involved here as most of the mirrors returned at in the same country. But why are a few outside for Australia? My guess is that something may have been implemented a long time ago before Australia had 10 mirrors in total?
Anyhow, enjoy your evening folks.
Cheers,
Seamus
Hello,
I am having issues getting rsync up and running on my mirror for public and
private read only access.
Is there any way someone could send me a copy of their /etc/rsyncd.conf ?
I would appreciate it very much!
Greetings,
I have enabled rsync (v4 and v6) and anonymous FTP (v6 only right now) on
centos.sonn.com. Please confirm and let me know if there is anything else
I can do.
