The Unix Archive
The Unix Archive is available via various protocols from several sites. We would love to have more mirrors of this archive. If you could provide a mirror of this site, please let Warren Toomey know.
Rsync Access
The Unix Archive can also be accessed via an rsync server on minnie.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 | 284M |
UA_Distributions | Unix distributions | 1.9G |
UA_Documentation | Unix documentations | 920M |
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 rsync -avz minnie.tuhs.org::UA_Root . rsync -avz minnie.tuhs.org::UA_Applications Applications rsync -avz minnie.tuhs.org::UA_Distributions Distributions rsync -avz minnie.tuhs.org::UA_Documentation Documentation rsync -avz minnie.tuhs.org::UA_Tools Tools
