Hi all. Again, the usual disclaimer about not trying to big up myself or my sites, due to a limited bandwidth of 384 kbps upstream... Due to the limited bandwidth, I wouldn't be of much help in mirroring large-ish files and so I mirror the OpenBSD site. I've looked around for an answer to this and found nothing, so I thought it worth asking here. Is there a method of syncing the web site files for use in these kind of arrangements? I tried via CVSup and invariably had the files either deleted, or reverted to 3.6 revisions. Maybe I just need to learn more about CVS and I'm making a pig's ear of it. I presume that there isn't a problem in mirroring the web site files (copyright related) and that I am doing anything wrong in this? Do I need permission to mirror the site? Are there any other OpenBSD resources that should/could be mirrored? (I'll look to mirror the other 'related projects' if this is useful, feasible and acceptable.) I've opted to mirror the site in two ways, both under a subdomain and in a subdirectory of the /mirror/ directory on my site: http://openbsd.slashboot.org/ http://slashboot.org/mirror/openbsd/ Any tips on keeping everything in sync would be appreciated. If I am breaching any terms of copyright in doing this, then any request to cease and the slap on the wrist will of course be accepted. -- Best regards, Craig http://slashboot.org/ Support OpenBSD http://www.openbsd.org/orders.html
