Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
Noodling around I found a gentoo server at: |
| 4 |
http://open-systems.ufl.edu/mirrors/gentoo/ |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
I'm not sure if I can use this in my make.conf file? |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
If so, what would the setting look like? |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
Hopes are that is closer than my current mirrors. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Is there an a method/software to test which mirrors |
| 13 |
are the fastest? |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I have this setting on some gentoo systems: |
| 16 |
SYNC="rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Should it be added to all my gentoo systems and how does |
| 19 |
the 'SYNC' setting affect/interact with specific |
| 20 |
GENTOO_MIRRORS settings? |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
'mirrorselect' detail documentation seems to elude me, |
| 23 |
and I'm not even sure this tools is useful to evaluate |
| 24 |
the closest/fastest mirror or rsync host. Hell, I'm |
| 25 |
not even sure what the main/functional difference is |
| 26 |
between a mirror and a rsync host? |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
confused on optimizing gentoo downloads.... |
