Right now, what I need is a complete reference to how to host a mirror. I'll forward it to Dr. Mumit Khan and we'll discuss about what to do. Later I have a plan to make it mandatory to use Ubuntu/Linux for home usage for all students of Department of Computer Science and Engineering. (The conspiracy theory, MUHUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA). Poor students. <div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, May 28, 2008 at 11:07 PM, Raihan Hasnain <<a href="mailto:raihanhasnain@gmail.com">raihanhasnain@gmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> My university wanted to be an official mirror for ubuntu. I have told you earlier, we are going to move into Ubuntu pretty soon (from Win2000 and Fedora 5/6). Don't question about the space ;) but bandwidth might cause a problem. We may get help from BracNET, but that will come later. If there are a good number of Ubuntu users here, there are two good news. I might help to convince BracNet and Sirius Broadband, if they get proper help they'll host the mirrors as well. Then the BracNet and Zip users will get direct ftp facilities for mirrors (without internet).<div> <div></div><div class="Wj3C7c"> <div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, May 28, 2008 at 10:45 PM, Russell John <<a href="mailto:russell@linux.org.bd" target="_blank">russell@linux.org.bd</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Becoming the official mirror requires large disk space and a huge amount of bandwidth... are you in touch with any ISPs who might be able to help? <div><div></div><div> On Wed, May 28, 2008 at 10:34 PM, Raihan Hasnain <<a href="mailto:raihanhasnain@gmail.com" target="_blank">raihanhasnain@gmail.com</a>> wrote: > Can anyone share the link of Hardy repository DVD?
