- Stop encouraging people to mirror the FreeBSD web site - Update the instructions to use csup rather than cvsup - Remove details for compiling cvsup - Stop linking to pages which no longer contains info on cvsup - Fix the instructions - Remove incorrect info about how often the FreeBSD website updates. This page can probably just be removed, but until then it can at least be correct. Approved by: bcr (mentor)

|
<p>It is possible to mirror the FreeBSD web pages
|
|
<tt>www.FreeBSD.org</tt>.
|
|
|
|
This can be done using a program called <em>csup</em>.
|
|
|
|
csup is a software package in the base system for
|
|
distributing and updating collections of files across a network.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Running csup</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you keep your mirrored FreeBSD web pages in the directory
|
|
<tt>/usr/FreeBSD-mirror</tt> and are owned by the user `fred', then
|
|
run the following command as user `fred':</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
$ csup supfile-www
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
The file <tt>supfile-www</tt> contain:
|
|
<pre>
|
|
*default host=cvsup.FreeBSD.org
|
|
*default prefix=/usr/FreeBSD-mirror
|
|
*default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
|
|
www release="current" delete use-rel-suffix compress
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>This will mirror the FreeBSD web pages into
|
|
<tt>/usr/FreeBSD-mirror</tt>. You can install this into fred's
|
|
crontab, so that it runs once a day.</p>
