I am working on setting up a local internal mirror to updates multiples servers. I am able to build the mirror by using rsync from a Tier2 server without any problems. Where I encounter a problem, is that I do not have permissions to access the files under the centos directory via http (apache) or ftp (vsftpd). When attempting to browse the new mirror setup in a web browser, I get the error message saying access is denied. I believe only the root user is getting access to the files Here are the permissions that are listed at the root of the mirror: drwxr-xr-x 18 501 501 4096 Nov 20 06:41 centos I would like to know if it is normal that the user and group are both 501? I run the rsync cron as root user, is this the proper what to sync with other mirrors? Thank you for your help and advice, Matthew -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
