Thanks to creep.im mirror admin, he/she found a mistake in the directions: The correct rsync command is: rsync -av --delete rsync://rsync.torproject.org/website-mirror tor-mirror/ The updated page with these instructions is live at https://www.torproject.org/docs/running-a-mirror.html.en Sorry for any confusion. -- Andrew http://tpo.is/contact pgp 0x6B4D6475

Pls add my mirror to the list
by Steve Snyder 23 Jan '13

23 Jan '13

Hello. Please add my mirror to the Tor mirror list. The URLs are: http://199.175.55.215/ and http://[2607:8b00:2::fed9:6818]/ This server is located in Chicago, and does not have an associated organization. It is updated every 4 hours via cron job. Thanks. I'd also like to make a couple of observations about the Tor mirrors list as seen at https://www.torproject.org/getinvolved/mirrors.html.en. 1. I see that about a quarter of the mirrors listed have an Out-Of-Date or Unknown status. If there is some list-cleaning algorithm in use, it's not working. 2. It would be nice if there were date listed along with the status of a given mirror, as an indication of when the confirmation was done. Thanks again.

Which Apache modules do I need?
by Steve Snyder 22 Jan '13

22 Jan '13

My mirror is running on Apache v2.2.15 and loads a *lot* of modules by default. Since my sole reason for running this is to serve up static Tor content, I'm thinking I don't need most of them. I'm using the <VirtualHost> definition shown on the mirror set-up page, on non-SSL IPv4 and IPv6 connections So which of these modules do I actually need? LoadModule auth_basic_module modules/mod_auth_basic.so LoadModule auth_digest_module modules/mod_auth_digest.so LoadModule authn_file_module modules/mod_authn_file.so LoadModule authn_alias_module modules/mod_authn_alias.so LoadModule authn_anon_module modules/mod_authn_anon.so LoadModule authn_dbm_module modules/mod_authn_dbm.so LoadModule authn_default_module modules/mod_authn_default.so LoadModule authz_host_module modules/mod_authz_host.so LoadModule authz_user_module modules/mod_authz_user.so LoadModule authz_owner_module modules/mod_authz_owner.so LoadModule authz_groupfile_module modules/mod_authz_groupfile.so LoadModule authz_dbm_module modules/mod_authz_dbm.so LoadModule authz_default_module modules/mod_authz_default.so LoadModule ldap_module modules/mod_ldap.so LoadModule authnz_ldap_module modules/mod_authnz_ldap.so LoadModule include_module modules/mod_include.so LoadModule log_config_module modules/mod_log_config.so LoadModule logio_module modules/mod_logio.so LoadModule env_module modules/mod_env.so LoadModule ext_filter_module modules/mod_ext_filter.so LoadModule mime_magic_module modules/mod_mime_magic.so LoadModule expires_module modules/mod_expires.so LoadModule deflate_module modules/mod_deflate.so LoadModule headers_module modules/mod_headers.so LoadModule usertrack_module modules/mod_usertrack.so LoadModule setenvif_module modules/mod_setenvif.so LoadModule mime_module modules/mod_mime.so LoadModule dav_module modules/mod_dav.so LoadModule status_module modules/mod_status.so LoadModule autoindex_module modules/mod_autoindex.so LoadModule info_module modules/mod_info.so LoadModule dav_fs_module modules/mod_dav_fs.so LoadModule vhost_alias_module modules/mod_vhost_alias.so LoadModule negotiation_module modules/mod_negotiation.so LoadModule dir_module modules/mod_dir.so LoadModule actions_module modules/mod_actions.so LoadModule speling_module modules/mod_speling.so LoadModule userdir_module modules/mod_userdir.so LoadModule alias_module modules/mod_alias.so LoadModule substitute_module modules/mod_substitute.so LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so LoadModule proxy_balancer_module modules/mod_proxy_balancer.so LoadModule proxy_ftp_module modules/mod_proxy_ftp.so LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so LoadModule proxy_ajp_module modules/mod_proxy_ajp.so LoadModule proxy_connect_module modules/mod_proxy_connect.so LoadModule cache_module modules/mod_cache.so LoadModule suexec_module modules/mod_suexec.so LoadModule disk_cache_module modules/mod_disk_cache.so LoadModule cgi_module modules/mod_cgi.so LoadModule version_module modules/mod_version.so The answer to this would seem to be a good addition to the mirror set-up instruction page as fewer loaded modules presumably means fewer potential vulnerabilities. Thanks.

Creep.im
by Thwarth Wrhalthssen 22 Jan '13

22 Jan '13

Hello. I am running a mirror here: creep(dot)im/tor for ages. Nonetheless, I think that a very few knows about it and even less actually use it. It would be great if the link to this mirror will appear on the site, at least this mirror will get some use. If you need more information, I am ready to help.

New Mirror
by Heiko Richter 14 Jan '13

14 Jan '13

HI! Just created a new mirror you can add to the directory at your convenience: Website Mirror: http://tor.heikorichter.name/ rsync://ftp.heikorichter.name/tor Download Mirror http://ftp.heikorichter.name/pub/tor/ ftp://ftp.heikorichter.name/pub/tor/ rsync://ftp.heikorichter.name/tordist For the beginning I'm running rsync once every 4 hours with a sleep delay of up to 2 hours before the actual cronjob. Please advice of another time table if that doesn't fit your needs. The server is located in Villingen-Schwenningen, Germany. Kind Regard, Heiko Richter
