Hi,
easiest way to prevent doubles is checking the process list. E.G. create a bash-script for your mirroring, that checks if there is already a connection to msync.centos.org::CentOS
---- SNIP ---- #!/bin/bash
if [ "$(ps auxw|grep msync.centos.org::CentOS|grep -v grep" != "" ];then echo "A centos-sync is already running ..." exit fi rsync -aqzH --delete msync.centos.org::CentOS /PATH/TO/YOUR/MIRROR/FILES/ ---- SNAP ----
Kind regards Jens

Hi! I am now mirroring CentOS and I would like to use lock files so that I don't start multiple connections at the same time. I don't know how to do this... The CentOS Mirroring HowTo 'told' me that this mailing list can help me! Thank you in advance...
