Clam AntiVirus / News: New mirroring system
- ️Wed Feb 18 2004
A few days ago ClamAV adopted a new push mirroring system. With the new method, the virusdb team can synchronize all ClamAV database mirrors with our master site within a few seconds (usually < 20s). Another positive aspect of the new system is that it allows some redundacy in our master site.
The full description is available at http://www.clamav.net/doc/mirrors/ . We took inspiration from the Debian mirroring system.
Till now, 16 mirrors are already using the new method and a dozen are waiting to be converted.
If you have a lot of bandwidth and want to help the ClamAV project, please follow the instruction in the document forementioned and setup a mirror for us! Thanks.
