|
|
|
<p>You can (and are encouraged to) mirror the FreeBSD web pages
|
|
<tt>www.FreeBSD.org</tt>.
|
|
|
|
To do this, you need to obtain and install
|
|
a program called <em>cvsup</em> on your web server.
|
|
|
|
<a href="&url.doc.base;/books/handbook/cvsup.html#CVSUP-INSTALL">CVSup</a> is a software package for
|
|
distributing and updating collections of files across a network.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Installing CVSup</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can build and install it from source by the following commands:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
# cd /usr/ports/net/cvsup-without-gui
|
|
# make all install clean
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>However, installing precompiled package from the FreeBSD
|
|
<a href="&url.doc.base;/books/handbook/packages-using.html">packages
|
|
collection</a> may be much easier.
|
|
Refer to the chapter mentioned for the details.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Running CVSup</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>
|
|
$ cvsup 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. The pages on www.FreeBSD.org are
|
|
updated daily at about 4:30am California time.</p>
|
|
|
|
