I've got mirror 2.8 installed and running here, but I'm having a
little trouble getting consistent results with the FreeBSD archives.
I see a lot of "Not symlinking ..." errors and empty directories.
Could someone send me their package entry for FreeBSD? Mine is
currently:
package=freebsd
comment=The FreeBSD Project
use_files=true
site=ftp.freebsd.org
remote_dir=/pub/FreeBSD/
local_dir+/.1/freebsd/
exclude_patt=.*/.mirror
do_deletes=false
I use "mirror -d -pfreebsd /root/mirror/ftp.io.org" to update the
local archives. Should I be doing something different?
On a related note, is there an established procedure for mirroring
the Web site? In particular, I'd like to have the mailing list
archives and search engine available locally, just for kicks. :)
