Thread: Re: [webmaster] Fw: Re: Fwd: Mirroring PostgreSQL.org in Israel]
Hi Aric, I have added www2.il.postgresql.org to our mirror system. The DNS record and rsync access will be automatically setup within the next few hours. The system does not currently allow rsync access to subnets so I have just added the 2 ip addresses specified below. To get started, please create a virtual host on your server with the hostname www2.il.postgresql.org. Note that apache can get upset if you try this before the DNS record is in place. Once that is running, please use rsync to populate your server with a copy of the content. This should be run on a daily basis to keep up to date. We normally recommend a command line something like: rsync -avz --delete rsync.postgresql.org::pgsql-www /path/to/vhost/docroot Alternatively, you might try: rsync -vzrltD --delete rsync.postgresql.org::pgsql-www /path/to/vhost/docroot Which was recommended to me today (I'd appreciate some feedback if you try that). Once you have rsync'd, the system will automatically add your mirror to our listings. Re: the ftp mirror, unfortunately we cannot handle uid/pwd in the URLs at present, but thanks for the offer anywy :-) If you have any problems, please let me know.

Hey Dave,
I'm not seeing this listed in either the ftp or web mirror pages. Is it
that the mirror isn't active yet or that we don't have an Israeli flag
to make it display?

I am actually using the mirror all the time. It's definitely active.
Probably just hasn't been added yet.
