Hi Tru, and CentOS master mirror server Admin. Our user notified that the contents of Centos 4 at our ftp server ftp.riken.jp is flip-flopping between new one and old one in these few days. We already noticed that the time stamp was flip-flopping before in this Mailing list as: On 09.5.5 0:13 PM (UT+9) [CentOS-mirror] flip-flopping timestamp by pulling CentOS [Re: Wrong timestamp by pulling CentOS-incdvd On 09.4.21 11:28 PM (UT+9) [CentOS-mirror] Wrong timestamp by pulling CentOS-incdvd But It was not only the time stamp, but also all the contents at msync.centos.org::CentOS-incdvd seems to be flip flopping till now. Could you please look into and fix this problem ? We are now now mirroring using the script below, since we cannot believe the time stamp at msync.centos.org::CentOS-incdvd. rsync -avzH --delete --exclude=timestamp.txt --exclude=TIME --exclude=".~tmp~/" msync.centos.org::CentOS-incdvd /ftp/Linux/centos date -u > /ftp/Linux/centos/timestamp.txt date +%s > /ftp/Linux/centos/TIME For example, same file was deleted and created and deleted and created in our rsync log to msync.centos.org::CentOS-incdvd. (We are rsyncing to msync.centos.org::CentOS-incdvd every 4 hours if the previous rsync process does not exit) A part of the rsync log is shown below. CentOS.log: 2.1/updates/headers/tzdata-0-2009f-1.el2_1.noarch.hdr CentOS.log.4 :deleting 2.1/updates/headers/tzdata-0-2009f-1.el2_1.noarch.hdr CentOS.log:8 2.1/updates/headers/tzdata-0-2009f-1.el2_1.noarch.hdr CentOS.log.17 :deleting 2.1/updates/headers/tzdata-0-2009f-1.el2_1.noarch.hdr (time zone of the log files beleow is JST = UT+8) -rw-rw-r-- 1 archive archive 30662 May 19 18:42 CentOS.log -rw-rw-r-- 1 archive archive 91659 May 19 18:15 CentOS.log.4 -rw-rw-r-- 1 archive archive 84518 May 19 18:03 CentOS.log.8 -rw-rw-r-- 1 archive archive 91493 May 18 18:24 CentOS.log.17 Thank you in advance.
