Currently I'm handling Free-media project for Sri Lanka, and
Maintaining
Sinhala language for the Fedora.
Great job!!!
I have proposed to Sri Lanka Linux community to have private mirrors on each
and every university.
Its the 1st phase. As the the 2nd phase putting Fedora mirror on the Sri
Lanka School-net, thats is the official VPN for all the schools in Sri
Lanka.
Thats is a very nice idea. Hope we can replicate it here too.
Please provide a rough idea of space, connectivity and bandwidth
assuming a
test case like this.
you host latest stable release
[root@mirror ~]# du -h /var/www/html/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/ | tail -n 1
69G /var/www/html/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/
[root@mirror ~]# du -h /var/www/html/pub/fedora/linux/updates/8/ | tail -n 1
18G /var/www/html/pub/fedora/linux/updates/8/
synchronize every two weeks
Around 2-3Gbs but may vary
according to times update pushed.
(Total for i386 and x86_84)
100 regular users per university
Thats a tricky question.
If you have a mirror at each university, then that will cater to all
the internal needs.
And if you do restrict serving only to your country there should not
be too much external traffic.
(If you don't, expect *all* bandwidth to be consumed, no matter how
big your pipe is.)
We have a public mirror here and we got 1 million requests in 12 days !!!
[root@mirror ~]# cat /var/log/messages|grep vsftpd|grep CONNECT|wc -l
1051827
[root@mirror ~]# uptime
13:31:05 up 11 days, 19:11, 2 users, load average: 0.17, 0.48, 0.36
