[arch-mirrors] Setting up a mirror
I need some help setting up a mirror. Anyone got an example of a sane rsyncd.conf? Dir listing at: http://172.104.140.140/ (will hook up a domain soon) Could someone test: rsync://172.104.140.140/repo
I just have rsync run on a cronjob. I could send my script if you want. On Apr 28, 2017 16:30, "Erik Bye" <erikbc.b@gmail.com> wrote:

Sure, you can just mail it to me, and I'll have a look, thanks. You guys know if there is a particular geographic location there is need of a mirror? Is there need for another? Or any other infrastructure needs at the moment? Frank: Not using docker, but thanks. BTW: IP won't respond now, it was just up shortly for testing.

We are always looking for mirrors. If you can provide them in multiple locations that's great. If you can only provide one, but you can choose the location, I'd prefer one in a somewhat remote location. I'd suggest to look for mirrors in the country or in neighbouring countries on our mirror list[1]. You can click on the "Country" to sort it. In general Europe and the US have quite a lot of mirrors. China has some, but it's quite a large country and I think that some of them only have 100Mbit/s uplinks so maybe additional mirrors there could be useful. Africa is hardly represented in our mirror pool, but I don't know much about the IT situation there so maybe there are no users for such mirrors. Use your best judgement. Thank you for offering other infrastructure, but AFAICR last time this came up we were leaning more towards being independent by renting servers ourselves. Replacing a mirror is easier than replacing a server and this way we are also more flexible in terms of hardware or location choices. You're welcome to donate money though which we can then use to buy/rent servers ourselves. [1] https://www.archlinux.org/mirrors/ Florian
Here's the script I use: http://stats.arlm.tyzoid.com/armir Just add the -r flag for temporal load balancing on the upstream when you run the cron job. On Apr 30, 2017 07:24, "Erik Bye" <erikbc.b@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi, If you use docker, I made a Docker image for an archlinux mirror: https://github.com/Frankkkkk/docker-archlinux-mirror Cheers, Frank On 17-04-28 22:30:42, Erik Bye, wrote 0.9K characters saying:
