Hi Nahid,
for me the wiki link you posted is relative clear...
Do you have a concrete question?

There are multiple aspects to this question. The first one being "technical" and the wiki had informations.
The second part is this one, which I hope you read already : https://www.centos.org/legal/#export-compliancecustoms-information
Kind Regards,
Iran is on the prohibited list anyway, you can’t host a mirror there.

Hi Dear Nahid There is a problem because of the US sanctions against Iran, a lot of server and network admins in Iran have tried to host a mirror but we have had no luck. CentOS has prohibited Iran and some other countries because of U.S. Export Administration Regulations (the “EAR”) https://www.centos.org/legal/ even thought CentOS is under GNU GPL https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CentOS* (Source Wikipedia) *.
Another ridiculous thing is that CentOS has not clarify the exact CentOS license in their website.
I have tried but they react like we are bad guys with all respect I think you should mirror a private mirror for your users and/or data center.
If you want you can email me directly ( on email ) I would be happy to help you.
Best Regards

Hello Nahid,
hello Mohammad,
it is not about you guys being personally „bad guys“, I doubt that anyone thinks that way. It is about various regulations, not only by the USA, but also by European governments and countries, for example Germany, France and UK.
For me it is totally sensible to not allow security related software to be hosted in countries that have proven to be bad for our security.
Additionally it is protecting you guys from getting into the focus of the real “bad guys” when you not host stuff that could be interesting to be manipulated before being distributed. I don’t see big technical means to do something bad by making an “infested CentOS-Mirror” that then harms security somewhere, but I am very sure you don’t want to research that together with Iranian government-spooks. ;-)
mit freundlichem Gruß
