In preparation for this, incoming traffic has been monitored for the last three months (Sept - Nov). This has shown that the incoming traffic associated with maintining the FreeBSD ftp mirror here (ftp.au.freebsd.org) is a significant fraction of the Physics dept's total traffic for that period. It seems that a significant part of this is related to the packages and distfiles directories. As a consequence, I will no longer be mirroring those directories. I intend to continue mirroring everything else unless the incoming traffic associated with that proves to be too great (which I doubt). One surprise (to me) in the figures was the amount of incoming traffic that appears to be associated with our relaying of FreeBSD list email to .au sites. This is the only significant source of incoming traffic that I can attribute to that particular IP address. The total for those three months is about 2.4 GBytes (and represents about 10% of our total incoming traffic for that period). Does anyone else have figures for this sort of thing, and if so, does this seem reasonable? Anyway, a consequence of this is that I can't continue doing this relaying. Can someone else volunteer to take over as the primary MX for mail.au.freebsd.org? The current relays are: mail.au.freebsd.org. 12H IN MX 0 www.au.freebsd.org. mail.au.freebsd.org. 12H IN MX 10 gecko2.dialix.com. I'm going to be away for a while from about the middle of next week, so I'd like to get this sorted out by Monday.

I suggest someone approaches Telstra Internet, since they are the ones who are charging 19c/MB - they won't mind relaying because it will save them money (albeit a very small amount). One other possibility which is probably not favoured is to set up a compressed tunnel from hub to usyd.edu.au. This can be done with /usr/sbin/ppp or with ssh port forwarding. This is likely to halve the volume. And thirdly, what about spreading the au load around, so there is more than one MX 0 host?
