Hi all,
Unfortunately, as a private web server renter, due to disk space
constraints I can not afford to support a CentOS mirror any longer.
Thanks for the support and the experience. I'll look for other ways
that I can help out CentOS.
It's been a fun ride.
Sincerely,
Shawn M. Jones
Due to the increase in space that CentOS is taking up, I've had to split
the mirror across two hard drives.
Any suggestions on how I would structure the rsync commands to
facilitate this?
Thanks,
Shawn M. Jones
Hi,
mirror.centos.org has address 131.211.85.22
mirror.centos.org has address 131.211.85.43
Are not reachable on port 80/TCP, servers which resolve to this mirrors
can't sync. Am i alone to notice that ?
regards,

It appears there is a looping symlink in the centos/4 directory, as shown
here:
# ls -l /mirror/centos/4/HEADER.images/
total 24
-rw-rw-r-- 2 distro distro 4734 Apr 19 22:00 centos_icon_60.png
-rw-rw-r-- 2 distro distro 14815 Apr 19 22:00 centos_logo_45.png
lrwxrwxrwx 1 distro distro 14 Sep 27 22:01 HEADER.html -> ../HEADER.html
lrwxrwxrwx 1 distro distro 16 Sep 27 22:01 HEADER.images
-> ../HEADER.images
You can see this on other mirrors as well:
http://centos.cs.ucr.edu/centos/4/HEADER.images/HEADER.images/HEADER.images/

Hi guys,
CentOS 4.2 will be released in the next couple of days time, this is
just a heads up - the following tree's will be released initially:
i386
x86_64
ia64
s390
s390(x)
Alpha
Source Code ( SRPMS )
There will be a short lag ( 7 days ) before the 4.1 tree is removed
completely, so you might want to make sure there is enough space on the
mirrors to handle the extra pkgs.
Also, ensure that you are running rsync with the -H option so hardlinks
are handled properly.

yesterday,i found my raid is corruption,today,the raid is lose,so sorry everybody.
all data is lost.....
in the next few day,i will going to join a road bicycle match,so my mirror site(mirror.be10.com) is
not come back soon.... :(
I discovered this morning that SELinux had stopped a user from executing
commands through my apache web server. He was using a vulnerability in
php-pear to get in, which I had patched a few months ago.
Unfortunately, I had foolishly not restarted the apache service after
the patch, so he started adding interesting scripts to my temp directories.
I'm going to perform a partial rebuild of the server. By what I can
tell, he was not able to leave his SELinux jail and execute any
programs. I've used rpm to validate the MD5 checksums of all package
files and verified that the only ones that came back were ones that I
had modified.
As he was restricted to executing everything as the apache user with a
security context of root:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t, he was not able to
start any of the back doors or IRC bots that he had placed on the
system, but I am concerned about the content accessible to
httpd_sys_script_t, so I'm going to remove all web server related
material and restore it from backups.
What I did not back up was the mirror of CentOS, which I need to rebuild
as a precautionary measure.
I'm currently removing alias to the CentOS mirror on the server. Please
remove me from the CentOS mirrors page until I get the system rebuilt.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Sincerely,
