Hi guys!

I have just finished up my enhancement to the osupacks.ppy.sh page. What did i do? I added the capability of secure child mirrors. They basically don't do anything but serve downloads. No keeping data in MySQL, no complicated installation etc.

Requirements
  1. 100Mbit connection (You should spare at least 2-3MBytes/sec, but 12MBytes/sec would be awesome)
  2. Unix Based Server with a httpd* Server that supports PHP5.2+, X-Sendfile, Url Rewrite and PHP-MCrypt Blowfish
  3. A little bit a of knowledge on how to setup a vhost in apache2 (I can help, but it's better if i don't have to)
  4. 100GB HDD Space for full mirroring (less is okay, but the script to balance data is not finished yet!)
* i coded everything for Apache2 but i am positive it'll work on nginx and lighttpd, too.
* Thanks to Ezoda this is now compatible with nginx!

NOTE: If you don't want it to run on "full power" you need some kind of Bandwidth Limiting module. For apache2 that is "mod_bw". I don't know about the others.

If you decide to join as a child mirror, you will be added to the Supporters page on the mirror. Nothing else, you are doing a community service.

Be warned, this mirror takes what it gets! I currently suffer from a constant 28 MByte/sec upstream :D

Currently Connected to the Pool:
  1. dl1.osupacks.yas-online.net - 5.5MB/s (by nanashiRei @ France)
  2. dl2.osupacks.yas-online.net - 9.5MB/s (by nanashiRei @ France)
  3. dl3.osupacks.yas-online.net - 6.25MB/s (by nanashiRei @ Ukraine)
  4. osumirror.ezoweb.net - 9.5MB/s (by Ezoda @ Germany) - maps only for osu!droid DDL
  5. osu-mirror.casiobeatz.name - 9,5MB/s (by WarriorOfTheLynx @ Germany) - maps only for osu!droid DDL
  6. osu.h1921594.stratoserver.net - 6MB/s (by Ezoda @ Germany) - maps only for osu!droid DDL (until the server contract ist canceled)
  7. osu.xz1.nl - 3.5MB/s (by Rescla @ Netherlands)
Join now! :D

Here is a live graph of dl1.osupacks.yas-online.net:

RusselG removed from the list. Server seems to have broken under the pressure.

Get you and some friends to register some Amazon EC2 accounts and use the free instances as servers. You get a free micro instance with 10GB bandwidth/month for a year.

Good to rush me along, looks like you have plenty of people queuing up to throw servers at you.

Hello!
I have a homeserver with enough disk space and 100mbit/s connection(but it's always used). The server is in Russia and has not a good connection to Europe. But if it's ok, I can help you, I believe.

How much upload in MBytes/sec can you give? Anything from starting at 2MB/s will suffice.

nanashiRei, I can measure speed via speedtest. Which country should I do a test?

Seems fast enough. For speed testing i'd say test Asia (China, Japan, Taiwan) they make 70% of all the users. Please send me details on the machine that you are using via PM and maybe if you have ICQ/MSN/Jabber send that too :)

What i need to know about the machine is, basic hardware (Ram,CPU) and software (like Debian, Ubuntu, (Windows?!)) also if it's apache2 or nginx or whatever ^^

Oh no, this link cannot be used for China, Japan and Taiwan because the connectivity to Asia is very poor. Less then 1mbit/s. Usually 512kbit/s. Server is in the cold Siberia, lol. Fast connection to some European countries, such as Germany, France, Italy. USA is slow, <4mbit/s.

Then please do a check on the major countries and let me see the results i can always denied the use of your mirror for asian countries and let it be used where it's fast.

Ezoda was nice enough to offer high-speed mirror space for maps! Also thanks to peppy for connecting us. The Server is currently in setup/sync and will be available for osu!droid ONLY.

Stay tuned ;)

The server setup is now nearly complete. The mirror is now involed in the network of nanashiRei and delivers maps to the community.

May I help translating to Swedish? Not that Swedish people need it, I just want to do it.

Wrong thread. But sure why not. I'll send you a PM sometime soon.

And WarriorOfTheLynx joined us to. Again thanks to peppy for making this happen. Please note this server also serves downloads to osu!droid only.

Version 2 of the child script is coming up. You can follow the development on https://twitter.com/#!/osumirror and you can review the source here: http://development.yas-online.net/osumirror-childv2/src

If you are skilled with php and see errors or have suggestions on how to improve it, feel free to fork me and send me pull requests.

Changes are looking quite nice:



V2 is being tested on Ezoda's and my main Server right now. Seems to work as it should, will add a few more features and then push it to all Servers.

Note to myself: I wonder why i didn't use OOP before... it's so much more easy to use.
