Not really
First - I can't see the hits, which I follow them closely which is why we were
up to nearly 5000 hits a day. I have mod perl logging which gives me specialized
logs which I wrote.
Secondly, I have anti-spam code on the server side, as well as a lock out of
several spammer block to prevents crawlers and such, and since the mirror went up so has the spam.
Thirdly - I think it's straining the phone line or possible the machine doing which answers the
line, but I'm not certain.
Fourthly - NYLXS doesn't OWN NYLXS.org. I assume that the domains are to be donated back to
NYLXS
Fifth, the email annoucements are automatically sent out nightly to the mailing list. This
is not being taken by the mirror, nor could it be. In fact, the site changes every morning
automatically, including the calander and announcements
Sixth, areas of the site are locked down, such as class notes. This is not going to
be accessable by the mirror.
Seventh, some of the files, like the radio show, are HUGE, and mirroring them on the
phone line is a problem.
Eighth, I wish decission making for NYLXS remains with the board...which is a general
gripe. A real mirror would need the dynamic environment and could probibly be done
faster and with less strain on the server with rsync or ssh or whatever...
Nine I've been trying to prevent the spreading out of the central site so that
we would drive more traffic. This needs to be addressed.
