Private mirrors should be completely unsupported by the CentOS guys. > Please let them spend their time contributing to the Centos community, not > your private network. I also express my view, not to support Mirrors with 'Private' Label on it. Anyone can create a Mirror of CentOS Project's files. With this Private Mirror, he/she can redirect their CentOS box update traffic and in this case my opinion to sync their mirror from nearest Tire 1 Mirror. There shouldn't have any headache to Master Mirror Maintainers. But as a curtsy the owner of private mirror should contact the maintainer of the Tire 1 mirrors, from where he/she is updating/syncing private mirror.
