Hi, I have this in a file named /etc/cron.d/YOUmirror: # Everyday at 4:35 am runs rsync to synchronize the update directories from # (one of) the master YOU servers: 35 4 * * * root /usr/bin/rsync --recursive --links --perms --owner --group --devices --delete --delete-excluded --force --compress --verbose --exclude=/rpm/ppc/ --exclude=/rpm/ppc64/ --exclude=/rpm/x86_64/ --exclude=*.ppc.delta.rpm --exclude=*.ppc64.delta.rpm --exclude=*.x86_64.delta.rpm rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/suse/i386/update/10.0/ /srv/www/htdocs/suse/i386/update/10.0/ Of course, I also have apache2 installed. From this directory (using HTTP) my local machine can update with YOU, and any other machines in my local network. Note that since I'm using i386 as an architecture, I'm blocking other "ports." Best regards, Carlos. -- <nick> grah windows just crashed again, unstable crap. <yukito> Windows isn't unstable, it's just spontaneous.
