Details

I am the administrator for the Michigan Tech LUG server, and have recently added Arch Linux as one of the distributions we mirror.

Domain: lug.mtu.edu
Location: Houghton, MI (Upper Peninsula)
Access Methods: http for now, intend to get ftp and rsync going as well in the future
Access URL: http://lug.mtu.edu/archlinux
rsync IP: 141.219.155.230
Contact: agmeyer@mtu.edu

Notes: We have a full-duplex 100Mb/s connection, and can handle as much traffic as needed. We are currently rsyncing from a Brazilian mirror once a day at midnight, but that is easily changed to suit your needs.
This task depends upon

Added to master mirror list, you should be on the download page in a couple of minutes. Thanks! You should be able to rsync from rsync.archlinux.org in the next hour once I add your IP to the whitelist; please let me know if there are any problems. If you add rsync and/or ftp in the future, please open another report so we can add those to our master list as well.

Whoops, looks like you don't have ISOs- let me know if that changes as well. For now, you won't be on the download page as we direct link to the ISOs directory there, but you will end up in the pacman mirrorlist when it is next regenerated.

What module of your repository do I need to add tot he script to mirror ISOs? I am more than willing and able to mirror anything and everything you have--I must have missed those.

The "ftp" module should contain packages + ISOs. See http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:NewMirrors for a few more details.

OK, currently running the first sync of the ftpfull module from rsync.archlinux.org, should be up and stable in a few hours.

Did you want the "ftpfull" element in your mirror path? Let me know if I should change the URL in the DB.

Yes, we are mirroring the ftpfull mirror.
Comment by Dan McGee (toofishes) - Wednesday, 13 May 2009, 00:05 GMT
I know you are mirroring the ftpfull mirror, I just was curious whether you meant for that to be in the actual path to repos, as right now it is:
http://lug.mtu.edu/archlinux/ftpfull/core/os/i686/core.db.tar.gz
rather than:
http://lug.mtu.edu/archlinux/core/os/i686/core.db.tar.gz

Most of our mirrors wouldn't expose the ftpfull part, even though that is what they pull.

Oh. It does not really matter to us either way--let me know whichever works better for you.
Comment by Dan McGee (toofishes) - Wednesday, 13 May 2009, 12:52 GMT
Right now it is set up as the latter (without 'ftpfull'), so that might be best.
