New main mirror rsync server

Since the summer of 2005, llamah.se has been the main rsync mirror for both fQuake and nQuake. This changes now as f.nu takes over.

If you are one of nQuake's mirrors or would like to be one, please update your rsync cronjob to the following:

0 */3 * * * rsync -rtz rsync://f.nu/nquake <b>/path/to/nquake/files</b>

where /path/to/nquake/files can be something like /www/nquake.

You might also want to edit your apache config so your mirror can be reached from <mirrorname>.nquake.com, like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName <b>mymirror</b>.nquake.com
ServerAlias random.nquake.com
DocumentRoot <b>/path/to/nquake/files</b>
<Directory <b>/path/to/nquake/files</b>>
Allow from all
Options +Indexes
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

This allows people to reach the f.nu mirror from http://mymirror.nquake.com and http://random.nquake.com (randomly chosen mirror).

After you've done this, make a post here telling me the URL of the mirror (http or ftp), the server's IP, the server's connection (Mbit/s), and the location of the server (country and city), that is unless you are already hosting an nQuake mirror and the URL to the files have not changed.

(example)

I just added an rsync mirror on my server: http://www.greatwebsite.com/files/nquake/

I also added the virtualhost to my apache config. My server's IP is 23.114.56.78, you can call my mirror "greatwebsite", i.e. http://greatwebsite.nquake.com

My server is located in New York, USA and is on a 100/100 mbit connection.

I just added an rsync mirror on my server, IP is 91.121 .30 dot 193, you can call my mirror “quakeonline”, i.e. http://quakeonline.nquake.com
My server is located in Paris, France and is on a 100/100 Mbits connection.

Now is there still any need for fQuake rsync?

Not really, since the files haven’t been changed for half a year. But keep the files as there is still 10 downloads a day of fQuake.
