Alternatively you can access the mirror via rsync. The original Irix
rsync is not very helpful. If you use the nekoware rsync package neko_rsync-2.6.8.tardist,
you are able to make a complete copy of this nekoware mirror. To copy
the current nekoware distribution use the command:
/usr/nekoware/bin/rsync
-av --del nekoware.de::current /destination_directory
Please note, the option --del will delete every file in
the destination directory, which does not belong to the current
nekoware distribution. The current nekoware distribution is about 6GB.
With a 2 mbit DSL link the complete download will take about 8 hours.
This mirror is connected with an 100 Mbit Link to the Internet, the
Internet connection is provided by n@work
Internet Informationssysteme GmbH. n@work is connected directly to
the Internet exchanges WORK-IX and DE-CIX.
