Mirroring Dotdeb

If Dotdeb is useful for you and if you want to mirror it, just add a cron job to periodically fetch the packages :

rsync -a --delete rsync.dotdeb.org::packages/ /your/local/path/

Then, if you wish your mirror to appear on the mirrors list, send me its full URL.

Note 1 : mirroring once a day should be enough. More frequent updates could lead to a ban without any warning.
Note 2 : Using anything else than Rsync (Wget, HTTrack…) could lead to a ban without any warning.

Been trying to email you but all emails sent to your php.net address are not going through and bouncing back. Please email me a address that does not do this. Thanks.

Hello,

how many traffic is normal for a dotdeb mirror?

bye,
xaver maierhofer

At this time, it needs between 100 and 150 GB per month.

Thx for the fast answer,

and how many disk_space for all packages?

about 500MB of free disk space are needed.

Please ensure your mirror is NOT in a already-listed country, before submiting your request.

Ah, ok
Germany is already listed 😉

Thx for your great service anyways!

deb http://mirror.yux.ch/dotdeb/ stable all

is often not reachable, need you another mirror in switzerland ?

@Daniel A. : not yet, but I’ll contact you if needed. Thanks for this offer.

I’m mirror dotdeb in Australia, but I would also like to mirror http://archives.dotdeb.org/

Would you be interested in me doing this ?

If do you you think you could add an rsync share ?

Cheers
Mike

Are you providing an apt-key gpg key for your repository?
Sorry for posting this here, but I didn’t find a closer thread 😉

@Stephan : not yet. This is the next step.

I would like to mirror it in the uk if you don’t already have someone.

i emailed earlier offering my services as a dotdeb mirror in the UK (London) let me know if you can take me up on the offer and i will get it hooked up

The rsync server is not restricted anymore. Feel free to send me your mirror’s URL.

Thanks to those who will help.

URL is http://dotdeb.mirror.somersettechsolutions.co.uk

Hello.
Guillaume Plessis, we have mirroring dotdeb.org in Ukraine.
Could you add our mirror in list ?

Link:
deb http://ftp2.debian.org.ua/dotdeb/ stable all

Thanks

I have mirrored to the dotdebs in France, at 100 Mbts

deb http://dotdeb.linuxdebian.fr/ lenny all
for the sources.list

tried sending this direct but got a spam bounce

rsync has been stuck and failing all day on IPv6

i’ve manually forced rsync to use IPv4 for now but thought better to make you aware

Same thing here

@Anthony Somerset & @Scott : can you confirm it’s working now? (cause : unapplied ipv6-related sysctl variables)

Yup all is good now

I’ve just set up a mirror in US Sanjose for those who have poor connection to the official US mirror. Suppose to update every 5 days.

http://dotdeb.7086.in/

1G port, 2T bandwidth per month

greeting.

It’s not a poor connection… it’s a throttled connection so that many connections can be made and not sucking up bandwidth for just a few. And no one else has said anything about the connection until now.
