47 +<pre caption="Example email">Hi,
48 +We're glad to have you as our newest source mirror, welcome aboard!
49 +
50 +Use this information to sync with our private mirror every 4 hours from
51 +Midnight local time. This is for mirror admins only, please do not share
52 +this information.
53 +
54 +----------------------------------------
55 +rsync module: masterdistfiles.gentoo.org::gentoo
56 +username: $insert_here
57 +password: $insert_here
58 +
59 +To make this scriptable, we recommend placing the password in a file and
60 +then using the --password-file option with rsync. The file must not be
61 +accessible by others (i.e. chmod 640) or rsync will complain. So, as an
62 +example, placing the password into '~/distfile_passwd', you would use an
63 +rsync command like the following:
64 +
65 +rsync -rlptDq --delete -H --password-file=~/distfile_passwd \
66 +$username@××××××××××××××××××××××.org::gentoo /your/local/path/goes/here
67 +
68 +Please note that we have received several reports of problems when using
69 +the -z (compress) option of rsync. Thus, please DO NOT use this option
70 +when syncing against this mirror.
71 +---------------------------------------
72 +
73 +Please also make sure you are subscribed to gentoo-mirrors@g.o as
74 +we often send out administrative notices and policy changes via this
75 +list.
76 +
77 +Thanks for helping Gentoo!
78 +
79 +Cheers,
