slink mirror

["Timothy C. Phan" <tphan@iqrinc.com>]

Hi,

  I need help to mirror the slink distribution.  I have mirror
  previous release (hamm) before and I did not seem to have any
  problem.

  I've modified the config file and try to do it for slink and
  it always timeout (or something) on me and stopped.

  I have a fresh partition that I want to mirror the slink for
  i386 excluding the source.

  Enclose, please find the config file.  Please let me know what
  should I do to mirror the slink so I can upgrade from 1.3.1 to
  slink.

  Here is my computer:  90 pentinum, 64 MB memory, 8 GB harddrives,
  512K ADSL connection.  I have setup a 2GB partition for the slink
  mirror.

  Thanks
