Also,
Does anyone see anything wrong with this crontab
* */6 * * * rsync -avz --include='timestamp.txt' --include='TIME' --include='RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4' --include='4.4/' --include='4.3/' --include='4.2/' --include='4.1/' --include='4/' --include='4.0/' --include='5/' --include='5.0/' --exclude='/*' msync.centos.org::CentOS /mirror/www/centos/ > /var/log/rsync.log
I was using it to just mirror 4 but now that five is out and I did the includes for it crontab has been going crazy and laucnhing multiple instances.

well, nothing seriously wrong, except you keep launching every four hours, no matter what. so, if a sync does not complete in four hours, you will see multiple instances. i would suspect that the entire 5 tree is not syncing up in 4 hours, so you see multiple instances. i will offer a couple of suggestions.
ditch the z option; most content is already compressed, why try another z on top of it? only end up causing needless cpu load.
write a small script and call the script from crontab; the script could have a couple of lines to do locking so multiple instances will not occur - it would look like so (shameless lifted from debian)
HOSTNAME=`hostname -f` LOCK="somewhere/Archive-Update-in-Progress-${HOSTNAME}" # Check to see if another sync is in progress if lockfile -! -l 43200 -r 0 "$LOCK"; then echo ${HOSTNAME} is unable to start rsync, lock file exists exit 1 fi
Thanks but the entire 5 tree is already synced so I don't know why it is going a bit crazy.
