Mirror Setup
Mirror Number
Ask Luke for a mirror number. Be sure to include your machine's IP address(es). References to this mirror number below are in English. For example, 'one' and 'two'.
Setup Apache
Add to your vhost configuration:
<VirtualHost *:80> ServerName mirror-number.resource.aa.dashjr.org ServerAlias resource.armagetronad.net *.resource.armagetronad.net resource.aa.dashjr.org *.resource.aa.dashjr.org ServerPath / DocumentRoot /var/www/armagetron/resource/htdocs UseCanonicalName On AllowOverride All Options SymLinks </VirtualHost>
With Gentoo, this should be /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/02_armagetronad.conf
After setting up apache, you need to reload your configuration :)
Sync Document Root
You probably don't want to run this as root:
mkdir -p/var/www/armagetron/resource rsync --delete -a rsync://master.resource.aa.dashjr.org/armagetron-resource/ /var/www/armagetron/resource
