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

100Mbit connection (You should spare at least 2-3MBytes/sec, but 12MBytes/sec would be awesome)
Unix Based Server with a httpd* Server that supports PHP5.2+, X-Sendfile, Url Rewrite and PHP-MCrypt Blowfish
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)
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

Currently Connected to the Pool:

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.

Well, your previous post tells me there is that option, but not that you had something for me. So there~

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?

Here is a link utilisation and here

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.

Ok. That's my desktop which I used to play osu and other shit. 4gb RAM, 1.5 is usually used. 4.5tb HDD(3tb is occupied by anime), CPU Q6600(hot as hell, used to heat up my room in winter times, no joke) OS is ArchLinux.

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

peppy

Here since the beginning

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.

Since i have a second server(2 months) with i have no use at the moment the v2 Child Script is running at 2 Servers from me. The script is very cool because you have an overview about the resources the mirror consume.

Great Job nana !

Server #2 died last night. The Harddrive died. Going to reinstall and push data to it within the next 1-2 days so expect the downloads to be a little slower until then.

If anyone has 10GB spare and is located in USA:
I really could use a mirror overseas!

So here we are. osu!droid certainly growing by the day. Currently the system can more or less take it, but i recieved mails from a few users, especially from japanese ones, that complain about 40-50KB/s download speed. Sad thing, i cannot fix this, since i don't see why i should rent a server in asia personally.

So if anyone feels like supporting osu!droid users and has ~30GB of space to spare with 100Mbit/s somewhere in ASIA preferably in Japan, please consider helping!
