Well what about hosting a mirror in APE? If anyone could provide the space in Sky tower I have a spare box which could be used for an APE mirror and I don't mind maintaining it. Still getting the data from WIX to APE would incur a cost somewhere and seeing as my Orcon link also seems to route international, this isn't a possibility.

FWIW, it is possible to reach the (WIX-based) ftp.citylink.co.nz server from Paradise/TelstraClear cable:

For the time being, yes. Will the Citylink mirror be accessible from TCL's networks after end of October? -- Juha

APE accessible, when, or if, Xtra feel they will peer, which is not neccessarily the case. aj. -- Network Operations || noc. +64.9.915.1825 Maxnet || cell. +64.21.639.706

This is being worked on. At 11:46 30/06/04, Juha Saarinen wrote:

Hmm... it looks like my provider peers with Xtra at APE, but:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /files/ on this server. Apache/2.0.48 (Unix) PHP/4.3.4 Server at ftp1.games.xtra.co.nz Port 80

Forbidden

No access possible with ftp either.

Is access only via the Jetstream Games Realm? If so, how will that work under UBS?

I've asked the Same as well.. At the moment ftp.citylink.co.nz and ftp.nz.debian.org are the same IP address. What (I think) should happen is they move it (ftp.nz.debian.org) to another ip address and then advertise it separately on WIX and APE (anycast). So Citylink can continue to announce it at WIX and someone can take over at APE and advertise it there. I am pretty sure there are many people who would not mind looking after it at APE and using their own Bandwidth for updates. (as I see the problem/reason it started to only advertisement at WIX was that national bandwidth (from people not connected at WIX) was too much to offer this type of service) (offering something they get nothing from) Or get ftp.nz.debian.org to Akamai-type based system to ftp.nz.debian.org resolves to the closest mirror.
