  Subject: mirror setup
  I 'm still having big stability problems with my sup/mirror
  machine. It ran quite stable with 2.1R but due to the mirror/perl
  leak problems or whethever there were I switched to 2.2-current.
  A yesterdays kernel now seems to be promising but I would bet that
  if I enable mirror for the coming night I could reboot my machine
  tomorrow morning.

  I removed -F from the mirror lines and did the scan in memory again.
  I believe this was the cause why blues was down this morning.

  A question: Is there anyone out who is using FreeBSD as a mirror
  machine to mirror wcarchive's FreeBSD tree? And if there's anyone
  could he send me his mirror setup?

  I still see mirror writing files into the wrong directories
  although I now *have* localdir=/a/FreeBSD in my mirror.defaults.
