What seems strange to me is that I have been using the
Uninett mirror with great success. What path are you
using to sync from? I use this (reconstructed from
Ron Stodden's Troels perl script):
my $server_no = "rsync://ftp.uninett.no:873";
my $store = "/mnt";
sync_profile_rsync("$server_no/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/", "$store/cooker/i586/");
my $rsync_options = '--delete';
my $args = ("rsync -av -H -P --progress --stats $options --exclude-from=$exclude_file
$remotemirror/ $localmirror/");
Yielding:
rsync -av -H -P --progress --stats --delete --exclude-from=$exclude_file
rsync://ftp.uninett.no:873/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/ /mnt/cooker/i586/
I use an empty exclude file right now, so for me, I have the equivalent of:
rsync -avHP --delete rsync://ftp.uninett.no:873/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/
/mnt/cooker/i586/
If you leave off all the fluffy options...
