I guess your answer was : |
| 2 |
set up a source mirror over http. |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
I just set that up. |
| 5 |
I guess i get on the list by reporting the new service on bugs.gentoo.org. |
| 6 |
I will add it to the bug report of the server. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
Now, i was able to take a look at the var you where talking about. |
| 9 |
There are FTP servers int that VAR too. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Does that means that you dont have to set up an http source mirror ? |
| 12 |
or is emerge-webrsync syncing over the ftp source mirrors too ? |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
---- i have asked you that question in the last mail... |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
my questions were so simple. |
| 17 |
There is emerge-webrsync which makes people behind a firewall able to sync |
| 18 |
there portrage tree. |
| 19 |
How do I have to set the mirror server in order to offer that ? |
| 20 |
How do I get onto the list of the servers which offer that? |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
the answer would have been |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
set up any kind of source mirror ( ftp or http ) |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
I just try to get that right, just in case anybody searche the thread for |
| 27 |
simluar information. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
You have to keep in mind that there are mirrors which are only mirroring |
| 30 |
gentoo and not use it on there machines. Its important for them to know HOW |
| 31 |
to set up the mirror, not which information is stored where on the client box. |
| 32 |
or how you are able to maniuplate those settings. |
