However, not everyone runs rsync with public access, and it won't derive any benefit from web caches. A challenge: Someone, put together a script using bit torrent to maintain a complete mirror. I've never used bt, but it seems to me it shouldn't be a big challenge. Yoou could use debmirror (www.debian.org) as a model. -- Cheers John Summerfield tourist pics: http://environmental.disaster.cds.merseine.nu/
