Revision of Mirroring Trisquel from Thu, 06/24/2010 - 18:14

You can contribute to our project by setting and maintaining a mirror. If you do, please tell us so we can publicize it, and follow this instructions:

Mirroring the ISO images

Most of our traffic comes from the iso image downloads. If you have a server with ~20GB (currently 16) of space and a high bandwidth connection, you can turn it into a Trisquel iso mirror with this command:

rsync -rlpthi --stats rsync.trisquel.info::trisquel.iso /path

Replace /path with the path where you want the files to be placed, like /var/www/pub/trisquel-iso or /home/ftp/trisquel-iso. Then export the directory using http and/or ftp.

Mirroring the package repository

If you have up to 300GB of free space you can mirror our package repository. It includes every source and binary -i386 and amd64- packages available for all our editions and versions, and is used by the final users for upgrades and security updates. The command would be this:

rsync -rlpthi --stats --delete-after rsync.trisquel.info::trisquel.pool /path

Replace /path with the path where you want the files to be placed, like /var/www/pub/trisquel or /home/ftp/trisquel. Then export the directory using http and/or ftp. You should run that command once a day and keep the output text as a log. You should expect to get about 200MB from upstream a day on average.

Mirroring the whole archive server

To get a complete mirror with both the isos and the package archive run this command:

rsync -rlpthi --stats --delete-after rsync.trisquel.info::trisquel.all /path
