Hi Brivaldo Jr

Thanks for your new mirror.

Your mirror Looks good. But you need to have 3 more file on root level to listed and to be updated on http://mirror-status.centos.org/ .

Files are bellow:

http://mirrors.bd-servers.net/centos/timestamp.txt http://mirrors.bd-servers.net/centos/TIME http://mirrors.bd-servers.net/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-5

The file 'timestamp.txt' & 'TIME' is VERY IMPORTANT.

Please add those file on your mirror update script. Without above 2 file you will not get listed as Public Mirror.

If you need more information. please don't just ask,

With Best Wishes

&

Eid Mubarak (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eid_Mubarak) to CentOS Family

As said: You are missing a few files. Then: Having 5.5/ is not enough, there needs to be at least a 5/ which can just link to 5.5 - but without that the mirror won't work.

And: Please try to update more frequently, because otherwise your mirror might be flagged as outdated, depending on when our checking script comes around. Running rsync twice or three times daily doesn't really generate that much more traffic.

Hi

Looks nice. But it seems you are using 'Wget' or something to update the special files / folder.

Normally when 'wget' download any file and file with same name exist on target directory, it will add incremental value after the file it just downloaded.

Just add any command to remove old file before downloading new file, not renaming. At your mirror:

http://centos.ufms.br/TIME.1 http://centos.ufms.br/TIME.2 http://centos.ufms.br/TIME.3

and

http://centos.ufms.br/timestamp.txt.1 http://centos.ufms.br/timestamp.txt.2 http://centos.ufms.br/timestamp.txt.3

and

http://centos.ufms.br/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-5.1 http://centos.ufms.br/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-5.2 http://centos.ufms.br/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-5.3

Is totally unnecessary file and carry no value at all!

On your Sync Scrip, add a command to remove the file and download the new fresh file, the script check mirror status from CentOS will find your mirror 'Fresh'.

If you share us the script / command for sync the mirror, it will help us to give you final solution to be a good mirror.

I hope you understand my word.

Hi

You can do it with rsync itself. Here is the script attach with this email (text attachment name CentOS-5-Only-Mirror.sh.txt ). I have to make it attachment, as it was breaking the line on my compose window.

Anyway, You can just use rsync to update all the things.

Dear John

Thanks for your reminder and point to the guideline. With respect to the guideline, I would like the add some few more line.

The guideline was created on 2004 and Last updated on 2009. This is November 2010, a lot of change has been maid. Even we are trying to change the current method of choosing nearest mirror.

Forget about 3 years, think about the last 1 years, how the things changes. If you don't like any conversation, you are welcome to 'hit' the 'del' button of your keyboard.

Is there any possible way that you and Ahamed can possibly        *stop* top-posting and *do* trim your replies down and only        quote what is pertinent to the current conversation?

I just removed 295 lines and 8k bytes of cascade replies that        served absolutely no purpose whatsoever.

The CentOS project has a set of guidelines it encourages to be        used for their mailing lists.  These guidelines are at:

Listen, I am not trying to start a flame war; but you        intentionally do not comply with the mailing list guidelines;        your reply is proof of that.  1) It is top-posted and 2) Does        not trim the reply to only that which is pertinent.  Really,        this isn't rocket science.  Please do the rest of us the        courtesy of adhering to the guidelines in the link I previous        gave you.  I'd hate to have to start filtering your posts out of        the list.

I will stop writing anything to you after this email. Please first see your own mailing program, your signature and others eat at least 13 line of unnecessary space, which is no way related to the CentOS Family.

Much of what looks like rudeness in hacker circles is not intended to give offense. Rather, it's the product of the direct, cut-through-the-bullshit communications style that is natural to people who are more concerned about solving problems than making others feel warm and fuzzy.

This has nothing to do with the latter. Those guidelines are used for mailing lists (and usenet discussions) all over the world. This is not a private conversation you are having, it is going out to tens, hundreds, thousands people world wide (depending on which of our lists you are participating). These guidelines are common sense. And they don't change within 2, 6 or even 15 years.

Not trimming your replies and keeping top posting just shows that you do not care about others, just about your own laziness.

Forget about 3 years, think about the last 1 years, how the things changes. If you don't like any conversation, you are welcome to 'hit' the 'del' button of your keyboard.

As are you, while composing your mails.

KEEP YOUR MAILS SHORT AND TO THE POINTS YOU ARE TALKIN ABOUT. Everything else is just a waste of everybody's time.

And no, those guidelines will not be changed.

Hi All,

Hi C

I have seen repositories that contain a file named something like "update-in-progress" that will let mirror sites know that an update is in progress.  Does the centos site have a file like this or another method I can use to test for an active update?

At this moment our Current Process of Updating a Mirror don't have this type of method. We are working on choose a new method to manage the Mirrors Worldwide. Hopefully new method will have the method you asked above.
