## translation metadata # Revision: $Revision$ # Translation-Priority: 4-optional #include "head.wmi" TITLE="Tor: Running a Mirror" CHARSET="UTF-8" <div class="main-column"> <h2>Tor: Running a Mirror</h2> <hr /> <p>Thank you for wanting to mirror the Tor website. All of our mirrors are publicly listed on <a href="<page mirrors>">our mirrors page</a>. We've included some sample commands and configuration below to make the initial setup and ongoing maintenance a minimal effort. The Tor website and distribution directory currently require 1.6 GB of disk space. The /dist directory alone is 230 MB.</p> <p> If you would like to run a mirror (website + dist), it's as easy as this command to download everything a mirror should share with the world: <br /> <br /> <tt> rsync -av --delete rsync://rsync.torproject.org/tor tor-mirror/ </tt> <br /> <br /> If you would like to run only a dist/ mirror (distribution only), it's as easy as this command to download everything a dist mirror should share with the world: <br /> <br /> <tt> rsync -av --delete rsync://rsync.torproject.org/tor/dist tor-mirror-dist/ </tt> <p> In order to assure we have reliable and up to date mirrors, please ensure your mirror does at least the following:<br/><br/> Updates <b>no less</b> than every six hours, but no more frequent than every hour.<br/><br/> Allows "Directory Index / Indexes" (Index viewing) of the /dist directory.<br/><br/> Allows "Multiviews" or equivalent for language localization.<br/><br/> Have a valid contact email for administrative communications should your server have issues.<br/><br/> It is highly recommended for all mirror operators to subscribe to <A href="http://archives.seul.org/tor/mirrors/">tor-mirrors mailing list</A> where all mirror listing modification requests should go (ADD, CHANGE, DELETE, any other requests/notifications). Also, any technical assistance in setting up your mirror may be found here as well.<br/><br/> </p> <br /><br /> <p> An example cronjob to update a full mirror once every 6 hours may look like so: <tt> <pre> # m h dom mon dow command 0 */6 * * * rsync -aq --delete rsync://rsync.torproject.org/tor/ /var/www/mirrors/torproject.org </pre> </tt> </p> <br/> For mirror operators that use Apache, we have created a sample virtual host configuration file to use: <tt> <pre> <VirtualHost 1.2.3.4:80> ServerAdmin youremail@example.com<br/> ServerName 1.2.3.4<br/> DocumentRoot /var/www/mirrors/torproject.org<br/> <Directory /var/www/mirrors/torproject.org/><br/> Options MultiViews Indexes<br/> DirectoryIndex index<br/> AllowOverride None<br/> </Directory><br/> </VirtualHost> </pre> </tt> <br/> <br/> Please ensure that you keep your mirror updated (we suggest automating this task with something like '<tt>cron</tt>'). Our website, source code and binary releases change often. An update frequency of six hours is recommended. Tor users everywhere will thank you. </p> <br/> <p> If you are running a mirror, please subscribe to the <A href="http://archives.seul.org/tor/mirrors/">tor-mirrors mailing list</A>, and introduce yourself there. We will add you to the mirror list. Help for mirror support and configuration issues may also be found on the list. </p> </div><!-- #main --> #include <foot.wmi>
