Hello All,
My name is William Faircloth, and I am an undergraduate student Systems Administrator for the Old Dominion University Computer Science department’s CS Systems Group. We are very interested in becoming a public mirror for Fedora! Our university is in Norfolk, Virginia, USA. We have unlimited bandwidth over a 10Gig link to the internet, and we are currently mirroring the whole enchilada. Our mirrors can currently be accessed over HTTP and HTTPS over these respective URLs:
http://mirror.cs.odu.edu/fedora https://mirror.cs.odu.edu/fedora
Let me know if you have any questions. Look forward to working with you!
Kind regards, William Faircloth Systems Administrator CS Systems Group Old Dominion University https://systems.cs.odu.edu

Please use a tier 1 mirror[1] close to you; create an account in the MirrorManager[2]; register your mirror in our MirrorManager; enter your local netblocks in the mirror manager and as soon as you are listed in the database as up to date yum/dnf will be redirected to your mirror.
All this information can be found in more details in the wiki at:

Thanks for supporting Fedora. If you have any further questions do not hesitate to ask.
It would help us a lot if you could provide rsync access for our crawler. Our crawler checks the content of your mirror and using rsync requires only one network connection in contrast to crawling via HTTP which can take up one connection per directory/file on your mirror.
