An in-progress article on how to mirror FreeBSD, aimed at hub administrators
How to mirror FreeBSD FTP At this time (just before 4.5-RELEASE), full mirror requires 65GB disk space. For safety, 70-80GB will be required An anonymous ftp mirror requires network bandwidth. It is not encouraged if your site does not have enough spare bandwidth Choose favorite ftp mirror tool (such as ftp/mirror, ftp/ftpmirror , ftp/spegla and so on.) Select upstream. First candidate is your local mirror (ftpX.XX.FreeBSD.org). If there is no official mirror in your country, use ftpX.FreeBSD.org instead. (X stands for a number, and XX stands for your local country code) Setting up your mirror configuration. CVSup At this time (01/29/2002), full CVSup mirror requires 3GB disk space. For safety, 4-5GB will be required. Public CVSup mirror requires high disk activity. It is encouraged to use RAID-0 or RAID-5. You can setting up CVSup mirror configuration by net/cvsup-mirror port. Upstream selection is same as ftp. First candidate is your local CVSup mirror (ftp?.??.FreeBSD.org). Next is ftp?.FreeBSD.org. WWW At this time (01/29/2002), full www mirror requires 150MB disk space. For safety, 200MB will be required How to become an official FreeBSD mirror site Check your country subdomain is exist or not. If not, configure nameserver appropriately and then send your details to hostmaster@FreeBSD.org. If exists, contact hostmaster of your country subdomain. Hostmaster of subdomain is listed in the Handbook. Official mirrors may get access to master sites: ftp-master.FreeBSD.org: peter@FreeBSD.org cvsup-master.FreeBSD.org: jdp@FreeBSD.org About ftp-master.FreeBSD.org ftp-master.FreeBSD.org provides rsync and CVSup access rather in addition to ftp protocol. Mirrors should be encouraged to also allow rsync access for the FTP contents, especially Tier-1 mirrors. About cvsup-master.FreeBSD.org Sample supfile for cvsup-master: *default host=ftp-master.FreeBSD.org *default base=/ftp-master *default prefix=/ftp-master/pub *default delete use-rel-suffix FreeBSD-archive release=all preserve + + Stat links + Here are links to the stat pages of your favorite mirrors + (a.k.a. the only ones who feel like providing stats). + + FTP site stats + + + ftp.is.FreeBSD.org - oli@isnic.is - + + (Bandwidth) (FTP + users) (HTTP users) + + + + + + CVSup site stats + + + cvsup5.FreeBSD.org - logo@FreeBSD.org - (CVSup processes) + + cvsup[23456].jp.FreeBSD.org - kuriyama@FreeBSD.org - (CVSup processes) + + + +
