Subject: Public Solicitation for Caldera OpenLinux FTP Mirror sites

Greetings!

We would like to establish FTP mirror sites for Caldera OpenLinux:

    ftp.caldera.com:/pub/OpenLinux

If you are interested in becoming a Caldera OpenLinux FTP mirror
here are the steps:

1) Subscribe to the mirror-list@rim.caldera.com by sending mail to
   mirror-list-request@rim.caldera.com with "subscribe" in the
   body of the message.  This list has very little traffic
   so it shouldn't be a burden.  This will help us keep coordinated
   especially during new releases when there is a lot to mirror.

2) Mirror ftp.caldera.com:/pub/OpenLinux... (nightly, if possible).
   Mirror software can be obtained from:
   ftp://sunsite.doc.ic.ac.uk/computing/archiving/mirror

3) Allow full anonymous ftp access to your mirror site.

4) Send a note to mirror-list@rim.caldera.com with the URL of your mirror
   so it can be listed in the MIRRORS file and on our web site.  Also
   include the canonical hostname of the machine running the mirror
   process (not an alias, and not necessarily the ftp machine) so I
   can list it in the special "mirror" class that is never denied
   anonymous FTP access to ftp.caldera.com.

5) You can get a good idea of the sizes of various directories by
   reading the du-s files. We would especially appreciate it if you
   would NOT mirror the mirrors directories from us.  Please get those
   files from the original source.

Let us know if you have any questions.
