Well then the situation is rather simple, isn't it.
If the amount of traffic a private local mirror generates for the official mirror is greater than the amount of traffic that any local clients (excluding any "other purposes" unrelated to the sync process of course) generate for this local mirror, then obviously something is very wrong. This should be fairly easy to determine and fairly easy to attack (sync less frequently, increase the amount of clients syncing from your local server or perhaps give up the local mirror completely).
Stefan, i think you'd better read the post you responded to. It looks like Nathan's "local" mirror is actually an official mirror...
If i understood correctly, he was just being curious what was supposed to be wrong with the mentioned script. ;)
mvg, Guus
Guus, I checked the current mirrorlist before replying, correct me if I'm wrong but I can't find any entry relating to the domain Nathan included in his mailing, nor is he listed as a tier1 on the developer's wiki. Maybe I've missed something painfully obvious here? -Stefan -- msn: stefan_wilkens@hotmail.com e-mail: stefanwilkens@gmail.com blog: http://www.stefanwilkens.eu/ adres: Lipperkerkstraat 14 7511 DA Enschede
