oh yeah!
updating from my own mirror!
it took like 0.10s!
blazing fast...
i should get all VPS templates to start using the mirror...
Nice!
Now how about a cvsup mirror. :)
mhoran: would you really prefer cvsup over rsync? :)
i know freebsd uses it a lot, but come on...   cvs?? ;)
I know ... but to update my system I have to use cvsup. :(
Stupid jails can't use freebsd-update.
mhoran: do you need something special on the mirror to use cvsup, or is plain cvs sufficient?
I *do* have http://mirrors.arpnetworks.com/FreeBSD/, but only accessible over HTTP for now
soft launch:
mirrors.arpnetworks.com. 3600   IN      AAAA    2607:f2f8:0:101::2

yeah, they hopped on that fast... ;)
"CentOSIPv6mirrorchecker/4.0" Nice
up_the_irons: glad to help! :)
lteo: that was yoU? :)
up_the_irons: no, i was referring to helping pinkus with C :)
lteo: ah!  :)
up_the_irons: nice.
up_the_irons: so, the centos mirror bot crawled you via IPv6 almost immediately?
jpalmer: it did, but i told avij like 2 seconds before.. so i think it was him :)
ahh, gotcha
sup people
HighJinx: you ever pop in a socket 1156 proc and bend the cpu pins on the MB?  i've never bent pins in all my builds for socket 771, but last week when i tried the 1156, they bent, *or* they were bent before i tried and just didn't notice...  would like to hear you take on it
up_the_irons hrmm…. never had that happen to me since 478 and those pins were on the cpu so i dunno
try to rma the board i guess
those 1156 pins are freaking tiny too
HighJinx: yeah, i already did.  i got the new MB here and i don't want to mess it up again...
well, i'll just try to be extra careful
they need to get better at the sockets
up_the_irons: ping
up_the_irons: I think some special daemon is required for cvsup but I'm not sure.
(It's csup these days but I think that still requires mirroring CVS.)
google suggests "cvsupd"
there we go
up_the_irons: easymac has set up a cvsup mirror if you actually want to take that on. :)
easymac: up_the_irons is away but yeah, there you go.
It's ultra simple, given the port.
cd /usr/ports/*/cvsup-mirror && make install clean
It asks you all the things you need to tell it to have a working mirror. Let it do its thing and a few hours later you have a mirror.
Awesome.
Alright, gonna get away from the computer for a bit.
ttyl
easymac: mhoran : ok, roger that, thanks for the info.  the mirror box is ubuntu though, so i'll have to find another way, or make a freebsd mirror VM, etc...  all in due time i suppose
jpalmer: pong
up_the_irons: do you know roughly how large the centos mirror is, in gigs?
i can find out, standby
jpalmer: 81G
yow.
and that's the smallest mirror
r1.lax ~/mirrors > du -xsh FreeBSD/
891G    FreeBSD/
:)
ok,  bedtime for me.  thanks for the info :)
jpalmer: np, 'nite
