LDP mirror site problems

["Greg Ferguson" <gferg@hoop.timonium.sgi.com>]

fyi -

As some of you may (or may not) have noticed, we are having problems
with some of our mirror sites. Many sites are outdated. This being
due primarily to an upgrade to the ftp software on our host site,
which broke many ftp-based mirroring packages. I sent out a message
last month describing the fix, assisting the mirror sites, etc.; but
it appears that a few sites ignored the initial warning.

Last night I ran a 'mirror check' script (the basis of which
was kindly provided by Tamas Visegrady <tamas.visegrady@sun.com>).

I have since cleaned-up the existing set of mirrors listed on
http://www.linuxdoc.org/mirrors.html and have contacted those
sites (92 in all) that have an outdated mirror of the LDP.

In other words, the problem is being worked on.

regards,
