Is there any requirement on where to place the centos directory, so that it is consistent across all centos mirrors? eg. /pub/centos Is there a requirement to mirror ALL of centos, including the rather old 2.1 (which incidentally is a symlink pointing outside of the centos directory and apparently only makes sense if you're also mirror cAos)? I've been mirroring CentOS only for some time. Available at ftp://mirror.averse.net/pub/centos http://mirror.averse.net/centos rsync://mirror.averse.net/centos Any particular reason why the rsyncd module is called CentOS rather than centos, when the directory itself is called centos? rsyncd.conf seems to refuse to allow both capitalizations at the same time.
