Don't think any of the other Irish sites did though ;) Knew it was
being made available on rh-mirror on Friday and expected it to mirror
on Friday night but....

) ha, fat chance, he had it there yesterday AFAIK....
Nope but it is almost there now -- all the RPMS and stuff have downloaded
and it's just left pulling all the docs and other crap noone ever looks
at.
) he does these things with 'scripts', they automate things a bit.
Ya but they break ocassionally... like when RedHat decide to move things
about _again_ -- mirror was setup to pull an ls-lR file from / only RH
seem to have again switched from using ProFTPD to wu-ftpd[0] and decided
to try make the change transparent for users - so / becomes /pub (you get
auto cwd'd into /pub when you login) and /ls-lR.gz becomes /pub/ls-lR.gz
and Mirror barfs as a result. No idea how long that's been broken for (a
week maybe ??) -- usually only scan the mirror/rsync/wget logs once or
twice a week and it's a *very quick* scan too..
) Ya know ?
Ronan know ?? Ya jokin' ;)
BTW -- not mirroring ISO images atm. Still no SRPMS either and I might
trim the number of old-releases again (currently have 4 + current
release). Need to order more disk sometime...
