Some of these relays can be slow. To also what i've noticed about the issue is that my home server gets too often one of these: (or somethign alike) May 31 10:11:21 shadows sendmail[10327]: NOQUEUE: timeout waiting for input from HUB.FreeBSD.ORG during server cmd read sure, it's probably beccause i'm in finland, and because my line to the world from here is now just 57600, until i get my ADSL which will speed up things very much (3.1Mbps/1.1Mbps in teory), tomorrow actually. does all of those different hub-machines return 'hub' or am i being fed from the same machine always? since it might also be a problem from one/few of those hubs if they all report themselves as 'hub'. anyway, if i keep getting those timeouts after my line upgrade, i'll get back into the issue. coz if where i'm working i should also be backed up with the adequate international bandwidths... =) oh, another thought, where exactly are explained what one have to do to put up a cvsup-mirror site? i'm _finally_ about to put up what i've wanted to do for years, cvsup.fi.freebsd.org, since no one else in this country seems to be enough interested in provinding that. how much disk space should i reserve for it? i'd also be very interested in hearing on which hardware different people run their cvsup-mirrors. (disks, cpu, ram, what else the machine does) (this probably might go into somewhere else than chat but here it is anyway, i guess enough people get to read this from here too...) mickey To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
