Hello all,
Someone at work has setup a mirror of RedHat and Mandrake update RPMs
(for internal use only). I'd like to get a debian archive added to the
list. Actually doing the mirror via rsync is easy and well documented.
But I'd like to know what the traffic requirements are for maintaining a
woody archive: how many MB per week is used in updating things?
And I believe that UWA has a debian mirror. If I turn up at one of the
UCC meetings, would they let me copy lots of the debian mirror to my
laptop so I could "seed" the work mirror? (I imagine the powers would
be more likely to say yes to my request for a debian mirror if the
initial archive could be got for nothing.)
Thanks
Russell
