Hello!
I see that our mirror, mirror.lihnidos.org is listed as not having time file (no time) at http://mirror-status.centos.org 10 days ago, we have implented IPv6 in our network and from that day on, mirror.lihnidos.org is on dual stack. Because of matching date of showing >no time< and our IPv6 implementation, I speculate that this >no time< issue must be in some relation with our IPv6 implementation. Does anybody know why this happens? IPv6 firewall is configured to allow HTTP trafic. Also, can anybody check if he is able to reach our mirror via IPv6.
Here are mirror data: URL: http://mirror.lihnidos.org/CentOS (has both A and AAAA records). IPv6 Address: 2001:15c0:6626:19::2b IPv4 Address: 89.212.75.132
Thank you, Damjan Sirnik Lihnidos.org

10 days ago, we have implented IPv6 in our network and from that day on, mirror.lihnidos.org is on dual stack.
Because of matching date of showing »no time« and our IPv6 implementation, I speculate that this »no time« issue must be in some relation with our IPv6 implementation.
Looks like it.
From our mirror checking host:

From my home machine:

Yet I am able to reach your mirror with my browser, but (again from my home machine):
iPanic:Music ralph$ curl http://mirror.lihnidos.org/CentOS/timestamp.txt curl: (6) Couldn't resolve host 'mirror.lihnidos.org' iPanic:Music ralph$
Does anybody know why this happens? IPv6 firewall is configured to allow HTTP trafic.
Looks like I only get the AAAA address. Home machine is OS X, mirror checker is CentOS.
Cheers,
Ralph
