- <h1>How to Become a Mirror of the XEmacs Web Site</h1>
-
- <p>If you are in a part of the world which seems poorly served by our
- existing mirror sites, we would encourage you to set up a local mirror
- of the www.xemacs.org web site for you and others in your part of the
- world to use. So that others may find it, we'll list it on the
- left-hand sidebar of our web pages.</p>
-
- <h2>Requirements</h2>
-
- <p>We have a few requirements for those wishing to run a mirror:</p>
-
- <ul>
- <li><p>You must carry the complete site, with no "local"
- changes.</p></li>
-
- <li><p>You must do an update-check at least once per day.</p></li>
-
- <li><p>You must subscribe to the
- <a href="http://lists.xemacs.org/lists/listinfo/xemacs-mirrors">mailing
- list</a> for mirror maintainers.</p></li>
-
- <li><p>Make sure your webserver looks for "index.html" as the
- default document in a directory - If you're running the Apache
- webserver, this means using the configuration directive :</p>
-
- <p><code>DirectoryIndex index.html</code>.</p></li>
- </ul>
-
- <p>More requirements may be placed at some point in the future, but
- for now that's all there is.</p>
-
- <p>Also note that :</p>
-
- <ul>
- <li><p>The web site is approximately 20 megabytes at the time of
- writing (January 2001).</p></li>
-
- <li><p>We highly recommend that you run your mirroring software
- between midnight and 4am US Eastern Standard Time (4am-8am GMT),
- when traffic to www.xemacs.org is at its lowest.</p></li>
-
- <li><p>If possible, we'd prefer that you're able to have the website
- in its own virtual host so that we can make a host alias for it,
- like www.au.xemacs.org or www.us.xemacs.org, for instance.</p></li>
- </ul>
-
- <h2>Mirroring Techniques</h2>
-
- <p>There are a couple different ways to mirror the XEmacs web site.
- Here is the list of ways we make available, in order of decreasing
- preference:</p>
-
- <ol>
-
- <li><p>Use rsync. You can find details on rsync at
- <a href="http://rsync.samba.org/">http://rsync.samba.org/</a>.
- To mirror the XEmacs website, you could use something like :</p>
-
- <pre xml:space="preserve">rsync -avz --delete rsync.xemacs.org::xemacsweb /local/path/to/mirror</pre>
-
- <p>You can also just do a <code>rsync rsync.xemacs.org::</code> to get a
- list of rsync modules available.</p>
-
- <p>You may also wish to read the
- <a href="http://sunsite.dk/info/guides/rsync/rsync-mirroring.html"
- >rsync mirroring howto and FAQ</a>.</p></li>
-
-
- <li>
- <p>
- Use CVS to update your copy of the website from the repository
- at <a href="http://sunsite.dk/">SunSITE.dk</a>.
- See <strong>anonymous checkout</strong> in <a
- href="../About/Website.html#XWCR">XEmacs Website CVS
- Repository</a> for details. You'll need Perl installed in
- order to generate the web pages. If you want to be able to
- validate the web pages, you'll also need to install XEmacs
- with the PSGML package.</p>
-
- <p>When you want to update the website :</p>
-
- <pre xml:space="preserve"><strong>cd /path/to/your/mirror</strong>
-<strong>cvs -q update</strong>
-<strong>make</strong></pre>
-
- <p>(this can be put in a cron job, for instance)</p>
- </li>
-
-
- <li><p>If you're running the Apache webserver, you could
- use the <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_proxy.html"
- >proxy module</a>
- to "pass-through" requests to the central XEmacs web site. Set up the
- following in the configuration for your mirror:</p>
-
- <pre xml:space="preserve">
-ProxyPass / http://www.xemacs.org/
-CacheDefaultExpire 24
- </pre>
-
- <p>Every request which then comes into this server will be passed
- along to www.xemacs.org, unless the object is already in your local
- cache and is less than 24 hours old.</p></li>
-
- </ol>
-
- <p>We do not recommend the use of Web spiders, or HTTP equivalents to
- the "mirror.pl" package, as every object needs to get a HEAD request
- every time it is checked, which is a very inefficient mechanism for
- seeing what's been updated on an entire site.</p>
-
- <p>It is not possible to mirror via ftp. The other methods are also far
- more efficient so you will be pleased after setting them up.</p>
-
- <h2>Inform us!</h2>
-
- <p>Once the site is set up, send mail to
- <a href="mailto:webmaster at xemacs.org">webmaster at xemacs.org</a>
- to let us know it's been set up, and we'll add it to the list of mirrors.
- Please be patient if it takes a little while to respond.</p>
-
- <p>The mailing list for mirror maintainers can be joined by following
- the
- <a href="http://lists.xemacs.org/lists/listinfo/xemacs-mirrors">these
- instructions</a>.</p>
-
- <p>Good luck!</p>
-
- <p><small>This document is a locally modified version of the one at the
- <a href="http://www.apache.org/info/how-to-mirror.html">Apache</a>
- web site. We appreciate their work in writing such a document in the
- first place.</small></p>
