Today the member of BLUG (Beijing Linux User Group), Funda Wang, told me he already setup an openSuSE mirror inside the university he works for.
This machine is inside CERNET (China Education and Research Net), for users inside CERNET, the downloading speed is much faster than lizardsource.cn (100kB/s VS. 60kB/s). For users out of CERNET but inside China mainland, the download speed could be 50kB/s in average.
I tested only http service available now, the repository URL is http://fundawang.lcuc.org.cn/opensuse/
This machine mirrors - distribution/11.1 - factory/repo - update/11.1 CD img downloading is provided, no DVD img downloading.
Thanks, Funda contacted me and I added the mirror to the database. I have the following three Chinese mirrors now, and their priorities are: lcuc.org.cn 100 mirror.lupaworld.com 100 lizardsource.cn 30 Any idea about a way to distinguish CERNET from non-CERNET IP addresses? Is there a list of contained network prefixes or autonomous system numbers maybe?
I tried to publish this mirror on a wiki page (which I remember can list available mirrors world wide), but could not find this page. Can any body help me to announce this mirror on one of these URL: - http://mirrors.opensuse.org/list/all.html - http://mirrors.opensuse.org/list/11.1.html
This guy can be contacted by fundawang@gmail.com
The wiki pages are obsolete. If they still exist at all, they contain a short note pointing to the mirror list at mirrors.opensuse.org. The list at mirrors.opensuse.org is generated directly off the mirror database.
