runmirrors.conf - Configuration for runmirrors
Contents
Description
ftpsync is part of the ftpsync suite for mirroring Debian and Debian-like repositories of packages. As
there are way too many mirrors of Debian to populate them all from the machine that generates the archive
(“ftp-master”), mirrors are organized in a tree-shaped hierarchy. Thus, every mirror has exactly one up‐
stream from which it syncs, and each mirror can have any number of downstreams which in turn sync from
it.

LOG Name of our own logfile.
Note that ${NAME} is set by the ftpsync script depending on the way it is called. See README for
a description of the multi-archive capability and better always include ${NAME} in this path.

Default “-oStrictHostKeyChecking=no”PUSHARCHIVE
Whats our archive name? We will also tell our leafs about it This is usually empty, but if we are
called as “runmirrors bpo” it will default to bpo. This way one runmirrors script can serve mul‐
tiple archives, similar to what ftpsync does.

Default: 600Hooks
Hook scripts can be run at various places.
