True. I checked the logs for our system and centos has been mirroring error free from msync.CentOS.org rsync service (centosk3) for a very long time. Our last sync was with msync-dvd.centos.org at Tue Oct 13 19:01:04 PDT 2009. Do not know if the host info is of any help.

Roberto,
Thanks for your offer but I don't think it will fix the issue that our mirror is experiencing since I believe it is related to the permissions on the new directories prior to a new official release.
Below is a what I saw prior to the release of 4.8 back in August.
rsync: opendir "/4.8" (in centos) failed: Permission denied (13) rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) (code 23) at main.c(1505) [generator=3.0.6]

If interested, you can pick the mirror from our site ESnet ( http://linux.mirrors.es.net) which mirrors directly with Centos master and also has access to I2.
Cheers, Roberto

So, I have a few questions about the future of the CentOS mirror network since the release of 5.4 is soon.
Is there any possibility that the rsync master pool will eventually have a direct link to the Internet2 Network? If not, is there any way for a mirror (like mirror.clarkson.edu) to avoid the delay in syncing new releases like 5.4 prior to the bitflip?
I'm asking this because the Clarkson mirror was unable to sync the release of 4.8 prior to the bitflip occurring since we are forced to sync with a mirror that is on the Internet2 Network. I would prefer to avoid delays in being able to serve new releases, if possible.
Thanks for any help you can provide, Matt
PS - It appears that someone (taylorvang2199) has posted something similar to an advertisement on the bottom of the CentOS Mirroring HowTo page.
