problems with "mirror"
Hi all,
Im using the current potato with mirror 2.9-10
ive been using "mirror" for a while now to mirror a couple of debian
branches successfully for some time.
( I set the pc to fire up at night update then poweroff in the morn :) )
But since about a week ago it completely fail or appears to f*&k things
up.
I tried a local mirror and ftp.debian.org ( interestingly i tend to get
more reliable faster downloads from the latter :) when things where
working )
ftp.debian.org for instance just times out on me and thats just testing
on the ... /admin dir
with the local mirror "mirror" seems to get path names corrupted ??. as
per follows.
ftp.citylink.co.nz:/pub/linux/debian/dists/unstable/main/binary-i386/admin/

ive also had it create additional subdirectories named ..../bin/ls:/
at one stage huh what givesit seems to be prepending "bin/ls:" to the
filenames its trying to fetch.
thanx
