for the sizes (at this time) : 22G for 3.4 15G for 4.0

yum.conf : simply replace mirror.centos.org/centos with your http server/path --------------- [base] name=CentOS-$releasever - Base baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1

... -------------- for the scripts, it is preferred to use lockfiles, preventing multiple copies running concurrently, and setting bandwidth limits (in KB/s). Put the script in your crontab, running once a day or more.

Hello all,

I'm interested in setting up a mirror, however I couldn't find the total size of everything (without downloading it). Could someone reply with the sizes of the 3.4 and 4.0 subdirectories ?

should be as simple as " find /path/to/mirror/centos -type d -exec du -shS {} ; "

Also, how can I search the archives of this mailing list ? (I would like to know preferred cron method for rsync, and howto configure yum to point to my mirror)

thanks, -Jason _______________________________________________ CentOS-mirror mailing list CentOS-mirror@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-mirror
