RE: mirror.pnl.gov stale

[Nickless, Bill]

My apologies.  I have been in Oak Ridge this week (see
http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2011/04/oak-ridge-lab-hack) and have been a bit
distracted.  Just touched down in Salt Lake City on my way home.  Will attempt to fix the
problem over the weekend.

Hi Bill and Matt,

"Thanks for keeping after us."

Your site is still stale. :-(

Matt: Isn't there a way to take pnl.gov offline?
(They clearly cannot maintain a mirror ...)

Thanks for looking into this, Bill.
Still no joy, though ...

Thanks for keeping after us.  It turns out that we added IPv6 support to the subnet
serving MIRROR.PNL.GOV, so MIRROR started trying to rsync with its upstream using IPv6
instead of IPv4.  I just sent a note to our upstream asking them to accept our IPv6
address, and the system manager there fixed it within 2 minutes.  Rsync is running happily
now.

mirror.pnl.gov stale

[Steve Tyler]

If pnl.gov cannot find staff to maintain a mirror
pnl.gov should stop promising to deliver
what it cannot
no excuses

Ok as someone who has been a mirror admin for a while in many ways..
mistakes happen. If 'mirrors-masters' were as unforgiving as that we
would not have any mirrors. That said we can work on helping pnl.gov
get out the predicament.
