Yes, I have scripts which run my Linux-based cvsup mirror (cvsup12.FreeBSD.org, which runs Debian unstable). However, they are still under some development (IOW, I have a revised version of the old hacked-up scripts that are currently being used that just haven't been tested yet). The machine might become a FreeBSD box in the future, but I don't see it happenning atm. > certainly, cd /usr/ports/cvsup-mirror ; make is not the answer for me, as the > amount of stuff it's trying to build is not funny. Yes, it is not funny. :-) Maybe I should take my scripts and jdp's cvsup-mirror stuff and combine them somehow and submit a deb to Debian. That would be funny, wouldn't it? =) -- wca To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hubs" in the body of the message
