Heya all,

At work I'm behind a restrictive firewall that prevents
me from using rsync. Are there mirrors for the main
repos for CRUX ? Specifically:
* core
* opt
* contrib
* xorg
* xfce

The FAQ points to cptn's page about httpup
but no mention of any mirrors at all.

cheers
James

It would be nice to see .httpup alternative files for these repos (not
just .rsync) on the portdb page ?

cheers

Wonderful,
I was badly caught with my machine broken, and the rsync on the old 2.4 CD
would not work due to update on something it depended on. A second string
to the bow is always a good idea. Please keep this going
