I gather that you merely write a message to hostmaster@freebsd.org
and tell us that you are running a server of fixed address x.x.x.x
in the spain domain and the organization will handle the problem of
aliasing your server to ftp.es.freebsd.org.
You should look at the "sup" information in the handbook. Sup is what
most people use to keep current on the mirror. The startup is expen-
sive, because you have do download so many files individually, but it
gets fast later, when you only have to update a few files.
That, I think, is the process, and you just need the disk space to
keep up with FreeBSD and you're all set.

P.S. Si necesita Ud. un email en espanol, puedo darlo.
