Topic: mirroring on SME Server 7.0rc2

[Teviot]

I can't seem to find much on how to mirror from the web to my SME server.  I want to mirror http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/releases/ to a ibay on my server and need help to set this up.

I also want to set times that this will happen (e.g. 0200 - 1000 daily)

I want to do more with SME an would like to do it at a local level and try to cut down on bandwidth used on the internet.

Can anyone help me with this?

regards
Adrian

Try "man rsync"

This is pretty easy to do.

I would consider using 'wget' scheduled by cron.

The command would be something like this:

wget --directory-prefix=/home/e-smith/files/ibays/IBAYNAME/[files|html]/ --no-host-directories --recursive --timestamping http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/releases/

For more wget details, please see 'wget --help' or 'man wget'.
