I have read hubs artilce that explains mirroring procedure to mirror FreeBSD ftp site. It is written that 60 gb is enough as of FreeBSD 4.6 is out. But it seems that it is not enough since I am downloading required files and without ISO files 66gb of my harddrive is consumed. Can someone send me a du -s -h of his/her FreeBSD mirror partition. REGARDS. Btw I think it is better to update that hubs article and give the correct disk space required :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hubs" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-hubs Sun Feb 16 11:48:40 2003 Delivered-To: freebsd-hubs@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 69BB837B401 for ; Sun, 16 Feb 2003 11:48:39 -0800 (PST) Received: from lurza.secnetix.de (lurza.secnetix.de [212.66.1.130]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5365643F75 for ; Sun, 16 Feb 2003 11:48:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from olli@lurza.secnetix.de) Received: from lurza.secnetix.de (localhost [IPv6:::1]) by lurza.secnetix.de (8.12.6/8.12.5) with ESMTP id h1GJmVdK032284; Sun, 16 Feb 2003 20:48:32 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from oliver.fromme@secnetix.de) Received: (from olli@localhost) by lurza.secnetix.de (8.12.6/8.12.5/Submit) id h1GJmVqs032282; Sun, 16 Feb 2003 20:48:31 +0100 (CET) From: Oliver Fromme Message-Id: <200302161948.h1GJmVqs032282@lurza.secnetix.de> Subject: Re: disk space for ftp mirror To: freebsd@faruk.net (freebsd) Date: Sun, 16 Feb 2003 20:48:31 +0100 (CET) Cc: freebsd-hubs@FreeBSD.ORG In-Reply-To: <20030216194034.9867.qmail@fuzuli.enderunix.org> from "freebsd" at Feb 16, 2003 02:40:34 PM X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.5 PL3] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-hubs@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.org freebsd wrote: > [...] > Can someone > send me a du -s -h of his/her FreeBSD mirror partition.

It doesn't matter what protocol one is using; the problem is one of burying administrators under a blizzard of irrelevant changes.

Over the past five days, almost all of the FreeBSD/doc/ activity on my FTP server is from people using FTP-based mirror software. I see three requests over that period from non-bulk downloaders (identified as anyone who doesn't get all four compression formats): /ftp/pub/FreeBSD/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/book.pdf.zip /ftp/pub/FreeBSD/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/book.pdf.zip /ftp/pub/FreeBSD/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/book.html-split.tar.zip The Web server does not see any activity over a similar period for doc. > HTML, split HTML, PS, and PDF are probably fundamental formats. I see no need for more than one HTML version. PostScript and PDF are (in this particular case, given how they are generated) semantically equivalent; having the PostScript version serves no useful purpose. > Plain text was asked for numerous times. There is some value in the plain text for people with traditional FTP clients who just want to use `more'. > RTF is for people who are thinking about FreeBSD, and want to (for > whatever reason) read the docs in Word (or similar). I know, it sounds > weird (why not just use PDF?), but that's what was requested multiple > times on -doc.

Gzip and Zip both have their uses, > and the BZip format is generally shaves a multiple-tens of K when used. gzip and zip are (effectively) the same format. If there's only one file in the ZIP archive, gunzip can deal with it just fine. I see no evidence that the bzip(2) format is being used at all, and the resources wasted by putting it on all the mirrors are probably more than it would save a user looking for a document (most of whom are going to get it from the Web anyway). > Then there's the pkg_add'able versions, which are just good sense.

Could anyone suggest an alternate international server that I should use to cvsup from. 2./ I would like cvsup to use a specific IP address when fetching data from international sites as my default IP is restricted and my other on another interface isn't. I was unable to find a --bind-address sort of option, does anyone know a work around to this? 3./ I have a 10 gig drive that I have put into my server dedicated for FreeBSD, so this will have the cvsup for ports, freebsd-current and if there is enough space, the ports/distfiles (I think this is 4gig?). I am using rsync to grab this data, but unfortunately I cannot see any -current folder on any of the ftp's I have looked at in NZ, does anyone know where I could get this as I don't want all the old versions too. The distfiles shouldn't be a problem for me to grab as these are all situated in one folder. I will leave it at that for now and ask any further questions should I have any, once these have been resolved. Thanks for your time and help.

Could anyone suggest an > alternate international server that I should use to cvsup from. is there a reason to mirror from an international one if the NZ one is working for you ? it would seems to make sense to try and keep the traffic within the country/region as well as not put any extra load on the master servers unless needed. as an alternate you could sync from a number of australian cvsup servers (e.g cvsup2.au.freebsd.org, cvsup3 etc..). > 2./ I would like cvsup to use a specific IP address when fetching data from > international sites as my default IP is restricted and my other on another > interface isn't.

i know this one off by heart because i was the one who kept hassling john for it and was very grateful when he put it in to shut me up ;-) > 3./ I have a 10 gig drive that I have put into my server dedicated for > FreeBSD, so this will have the cvsup for ports, freebsd-current and if there > is enough space, the ports/distfiles (I think this is 4gig?).
