My intended machine has pretty good network connecitivity within singapore, and has decent connectivity to asian countries. sg.freebsd.org used to be hosted on an adsl connection, which is too slow, and currently does not even resolve. [..] Documentation about how to mirror what, etc. can be found here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/hubs/ This should answer most of your questions. > Lastly, can someone give me tips on exactly how to do the mirroring while excluding the stuff I don't want? I haven't been able to find anonymous cvsup access to the ftp archive, so I'm falling back onto using rsync. This is my command line, but it still ends up retrieving all the alpha, etc, files and directories that I don't want: > > rsync --recursive --links --hard-links --times --verbose --compress \ > --delete --exclude "Archive-Update-in-Progress-mirror.averse.net" \ > --exclude-from=/home/cvsupin/bin/mirror-freebsd-ftp.exclude \ > planetmirror.com::freebsd /home/mirrors/ftp_root/pub/FreeBSD > > where /home/cvsupin/bin/mirror-freebsd-ftp.exclude is: [..] Try to put a '- ' sign (minus, blank) in front of each line. Also reconsult your rsync documentation.
