FTP

OpenBSD organizes FTP mirrors based on a master fanout site, used to feed second level mirrors, which other sites should mirror and retrieve from. Second level mirrors are chosen from sites with good network connectivity and maintainers known to the openbsd development community. If you wish to maintain an ftp mirror, please ensure you pick a nearby secondary mirror site to mirror from - mirroring from the master fanout site is strongly discouraged.

Structural Layout:

The file structure of each server is roughly:

People setting up new FTP/ANONCVS mirrors will be interested in the following disk space usage estimates for what is maintained at ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/.
The current policy requires mirrors listed on this page to provide at least the last two releases in binary form (currently 3.7 and 3.8) for all architectures, as well as the OpenSSH/, OpenNTPD/, OpenBGPD/, patches/ and tools/ directories.
Depending on the disk space available, mirrors may provide more contents, such as snapshots, older releases, current source tree, etc.
The current disk space usage on the master ftp site is as follows:


                      current  could be
pub/OpenBSD/3.4       10.8GB             (OpenBSD 3.4 release)
pub/OpenBSD/3.5        9.8GB             (OpenBSD 3.5 release)
pub/OpenBSD/3.6       17.4GB             (OpenBSD 3.6 release)
pub/OpenBSD/3.7       17.3GB    18.5GB   (OpenBSD 3.7 release)
pub/OpenBSD/3.8       19.7GB    20.5GB   (OpenBSD 3.8 release)
pub/OpenBSD/snapshots 17.9GB    bigger!  (current snapshots, normally >= the
                                         last distribution in size)
pub/OpenBSD/src         .5GB      .6GB   (ftpable src tree, checked out from
                                         anoncvs nightly. You should probably
					 avoid using an ftp mirror to get this.
					 It's better to just update it yourself
					 with a checkout from a nearby anoncvs
					 server.)
Hence, a mirror requires about 54GB of disk space at least, for snapshots and the last two releases. Depending on which old releases you serve additionally, you can waste still more disk space. Note that the master ftp site also provides the following directory, that mirrors should not need to provide:

pub/OpenBSD/distfiles  4.7GB   bigger!  (distfiles used by the ports subsystem
                                         makefiles. You probably should not
					 mirror these unless you want them for
					 other reasons yourself. The ports
					 makefiles will only look at
					 ftp.openbsd.org and ftp.usa.openbsd.org
					 by default for these)

If you add a new FTP, HTTP, AFS or RSYNC mirror site, please contact www@openbsd.org.
