'nluug.nl' repo is back!

March 03, 2011 — BarryK
I received an email from Jan at nluug.nl that rsync for 'puppylinux' and 'quirky' is now working at ibiblio.org:

http://ftp.nluug.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/distr/puppylinux/
http://ftp.nluug.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/distr/quirky/

So, I have restored 'nluug.nl' repos in Woof (and PPM). The three files that I had to fix in Woof are:

DISTRO_COMPAT_REPOS-puppy-4
DISTRO_COMPAT_REPOS-puppy-wary5
DISTRO_PET_REPOS

"Great news! Did ibiblio enabled rsync or are they mirroring using ftp? Unfortunately I checked today and ntua hasn't started mirroring. If ibiblio has enabled rsync I will send another mail to ntua in order to start mirroring. Else I'll wait a bit till they enable it as they have told you in 1 or 2 weeks. By the way accidentally I found that they are mirroring a puppy variant called [url=http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/emil/doc/html/en/home.htm]Sage live :? Didn't even knew that it exists.

"aarnet.edu.au have also a http site http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/quirky/ I don't know which is better, I originally posted the ftp site because http was down most of yesterday. I notice in woof that http is used for puppy.

"I have just been testing all the "official" [u]puppylinux[/u] mirrors. These 2 are failures, ftp://ftp.oss.cc.gatech.edu/pub/ ftp://ftp.tu-chemnitz.de/.SAN0/pub/linux/ They both seem to have cut back to just the big distros. These are all good: http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/ (of course) http://ftp.cc.uoc.gr/mirrors/linux/ ftp://ftp.linux.hr/ ftp://ftp.lug.udel.edu/pub/ http://ftp.nluug.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/distr/ ftp://ftp.sh.cvut.cz/MIRRORS/ ftp://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/linux/ http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/ http://ftp.cc.uoc.gr/mirrors/linux/ Also the internode "unofficial" mirror is working too http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/
