Dear All,
I probably have missed some announcement, so my apologies for asking what I should know already.
Which higher tier mirror should I use to rsync CentOS (including DVDs) to public mirror I maintain?
I was sorting out hardware problems of my box that serves public mirrors, and I discovered that I use probably outdated source to rsync from. Namely, here is my rsync line (in longer cron job):
$rsync -aqH --exclude .~tmp~/ --exclude .~tmp~ --delete\ msync-dvd.centos.org::CentOS-incdvd /data/mirror/centos
- and I'm getting the following error:
@ERROR: Unknown module 'CentOS-incdvd'
Independent on this error I also have a bit strange answer in DNS resolution of msync-dvd.centos.org:
# host msync-dvd.centos.org msync-dvd.centos.org has address 209.44.106.213 Host msync-dvd.centos.org not found: 2(SERVFAIL)
I would appreciate any help or pointers.
Thanks in advance for a

Hello, there are a few things.
First of all, the "CentOS-incdvd" target is deprecated. You should use plain "CentOS" nowdays, which includes the DVD images as well. The hostname has also changed accordingly, so the full path is now us-msync.centos.org::CentOS.
But this might not be your primary problem. If the IP address of your server has changed, you may need to tell the new IP addresses where your rsyncs come from so that the ACLs could be updated accordingly.
Note that CentOS msync machines are now available over IPv6, so if your machine has IPv6 connectivity (even if the address isn't in public DNS), you should tell us the IPv6 address as well.

Thank you, Anssi! Indeed my IP address chnaged, and I am apparently a bit low on brain abilities, - that just escaped me.
