Sorry about that, it seems the anycast dns server fell over.

Great to have a local mirror - got all my Ubuntu 9.10 ISO - now to distribute them to the poor guys
with no Internet acsess or limited Internet access

Should be fixed now, let me know if there are more problems

ubuntu.mirror.ac.za = unknown.uni.net.za = (155.232.191.230)

Andrew I see their is only one anycast DNS server for mirror.ac.za domain
anycast.tenet.ac.za

Thats the whole point of anycast :) You see one, the one being closest to you. anycast.tenet.ac.za is actually 4 different servers in various locations, its how we do geographic redirection to mirrors
 
@AndrewAlston Is there any way you can retrieve geographical info WRT. the downloads? For example where did the most downloads in SA come from?
 
Server is busy rebooting - we started taking serious memory leaks due to the huge utilization and the tcp window size, should be back in a few, a million apologies

Mind sharing how much traffic you are experiencing?
 
Argh, it's dead again...

I'm also interested to see traffic info
 
Hrm dead again? I'm not seeing any issues on this side... and there is around 150mbit/second of traffic flowing outta it at the moment?
 
Yeah, it stalled for like 5 minutes, but it's back again... False alarm, I guess. Sorry
 
oh noes, going to be a long night - half the packages I downloaded were corrupted and I can see everything's going to be borked after the upgrade completes :0

*Flash prepped*

Tra-la-la...
