| 1 | = How to make a Mirror of Elive = |
| 2 | == ISOs Mirror == |
| 3 | If you have a server and what to be a mirror of the Elive ISOs, you are more than welcome! |
| 4 | |
| 5 | === Requeriments === |
| 6 | The syncronization of the ISOs like the repository is made by rsync+ssh, this means, that is just required a **ssh** login access, and to have **rsync** installed |
| 7 | |
| 8 | It is also required of course to have a subdomain created that points to a specific dir (this dir is your choice), like ''http://elive.yourdomain.com'' or ''http://elive.isos.yourdomain.com'', it is not really important which names or directories to choice, just to have them ready :) |

| 10 | When you have all this ready, just send an email to [http://www.elivecd.org/Main/Contact Thanatermesis] with the details |

| 12 | === Space and Bandwith === |
| 13 | |
| 14 | We don't have really numbers, but just think that if you don't have one of these ''supa-nice-bandwith'' that you will never use that much, just forget the idea. There's a lot of downloads of the ISOs, but of course are not a scary number, actually the max. bandwith used for ''icedslash'' in a month was '''150 gb''' |
| 15 | |
| 16 | The size needed to store the ISOs will vary, actually was never been more than 5gb of storage (think about some isos in a directory), but if the limit is set to 10gb could be nice :) |
| 17 | |
| 18 | == Repository Mirror == |
| 19 | |
| 20 | There you will need a lot more of space, the repository size is 50 gb aprox. If you own a very good hosting with very good speed and very good bandwith, you will be able to mirror the repository too :). The '''only real requeriment''' of this is that you will own a long-time hosting, because we don't want to have in the future a broken repository that will not work anymore on your ''sources.list'' (in any case, should be fixed by changing the DNS) |
| 21 | |
| 22 | The special requeriment of this is that you will be able to add a subdomain of a domain that you don't own, for example ''asia.repository.elive-systems.com'', you don't own the domain ''elive-systems.com'' but your mirror needs to accept this address in order to understand the redirect from the real domain. |

| 24 | Actually we have these two ones: |
| 25 | * US - (Los Angeles): By the Elive Servers |
| 26 | * Europe - (France): By Icedslash |
