[CentOS-mirror] Mirroring Release of CentOS 5 Beta

Thu Mar 8 14:19:51 UTC 2007

Mirror: Virginia Tech CS department http://mirror.cs.vt.edu/
IP: 128.173.40.38
URL for testing: http://mirror.cs.vt.edu/pub/centos-beta/
(also accessable http://via 128.173.40.38/centos/ )

 From the root of the site, /centos/ symlinks to the proper directory 
for the beta, and is respected by apache.

Still syncing, but should be done soon.
