Rsync Access

The Unix Archive can also be accessed via an rsync server on www.tuhs.org. See the rsync web page for details on how to obtain a client.

The rsync access is divided into a number of categories in order to ease the load on the Unix Archive server. The categories are:

|Name |Holds |Size (Megs) | |UA_Root |root files |5M | |UA_Applications |Applications directory |270M | |UA_Distributions |Unix distributions |1.7G | |UA_Documentation |Unix documentations |880M | |UA_Tools |Tools to work on old systems |20M |

You can use rsync to mirror each section. To mirror the complete archive, you would issue the following commands:

mkdir Applications Distributions Documentation Tools
