However would it not make more sense to just set up a second rsync target and explicitly exclude *DVD* or something akin to that so that those not wanting the DVD's got everything BUT the dvd isos? That

be a lot quicker and simpler than doing a hard linked set of trees.
Yes, that is fine. We hardlink the trees for other reasons (although they escape me at the moment :)
Both are pretty ridiculous, quite frankly.
Settle on a standard --exclude pattern, and you don't need two trees of any sort.
Currently, I believe --exclude *-DVD.iso should work, but --exclude *-DVD*.iso might be a better (future-proof) pattern.
One can easily export two different rsync modules with and without DVD images, if that's at all desirable, simply by putting the exclude pattern in rsyncd.conf.

The difference being, when releases happen the public doesn't see what's being released, where as the mirrors need to be able to see it. I.E.
rw------- <user> <group> centos/5.0
Would still be invisible during mirror propagation (rsync user is set as a generic user without permission to access the folder) while the mirrors connecting would be able to. That is the main difference, otherwise 99% of the time the two would return the same data. Also means that I can have two separate pools of connections say 10 - 20 slots for mirrors and say a hundred for normal downloading which gives a mirror a MUCH better chance of getting into and downloading things vs. the general public.
FWIW, please use drwxr-x--- as the mode for "bit not yet flipped"; otherwise rsync has to run as the mirroring user to allow access for mirrors.

I'm concerned that some of the images in the HEADER.images folder aren't rsyncing. Any idea why that's happening?

Hello Lance,
Can you please clarify how can i sync the dvd's from ?
I am trying to use eu-msync.centos.org::::CentOS-sync-incdvd and msync.centos.org::::CentOS-sync-incdvd without any success.
regards, --nvieira

My server (distrib-coffee) can host and share via ftp/http/rsync DVD

it already does it for mandriva (and it is running a mandriva 2007

distrib-coffee has now all DVD iso sync from Tier1 mirrors.
