Couple of questions: - Do we want to get fancy with the description of the use of the rsync suite? It is primarily useful for mirror operators, all others had better use cvsup anyway... - Do we want to include ftp-master into the list? Just like cvsup-master, this server is not for public consumption. -- Regards: Szilveszter ADAM Szombathely Hungary --oyUTqETQ0mS9luUI Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="handbook:mirrors:rsync.patch" Index: mirrors/chapter.sgml =================================================================== RCS file: /usr/home/cc/ncvs/freebsd//doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mirrors/chapter.sgml,v retrieving revision 1.218 diff -u -r1.218 chapter.sgml --- mirrors/chapter.sgml 15 May 2002 03:53:39 -0000 1.218 +++ mirrors/chapter.sgml 20 May 2002 08:39:02 -0000 @@ -4013,6 +4013,75 @@ + + + rsync sites + + The following sites make FreeBSD available through the rsync + protocol.
