I've setup a mirror at mplayer-mirror.rhrk.uni-kl.de
(on the same host as ftp.uni-kl.de):

mplayer-mirror.rhrk.uni-kl.de.  IN AAAA  2001:638:208:120::85
mplayer-mirror.rhrk.uni-kl.de.  IN A     131.246.120.85

I'd like to setup a ssh-trigger (I do so already for debian-*).
Can you send me a ssh-public-key?


To answer the questions on "statistical and other data":

> 1) What do you mirror?

homepage
ftp (excluding /benchmark, /old_stuff, /test like in the sample script)

> 2) Traffic data:

Last month the whole host generated 25 TiB ougoing traffic,
which is quite typical.

Stats are availible at: http://ftp.uni-kl.de/stats/

> 3) Network infrastructure

The host has 1 gbit connection to the campus network,
which is connected with 155mbit to the rest of the world.
(but this should be upgraded to 1 gbit too in a couple of weeks..)

single Xeon 2.66GHz (with HT), 3gb ram, 2tb raid, and an extra
software raid1 of 2 disks for Knoppix only.

Debian/sarge (or etch soon)

only mirrors.

We've disabled all acess-logging from apache and vsftpd.
