Hey all,

So I made an Ubuntu mirror to cheer myself up :D (ah simple pleasures)

Ouch sorry bout the getting dumped. I like your site... nice and clean. But perhaps a part for x86-64? Thanx

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll do that.
It's kind of a pain in the *** to edit websites because I have to put the files on a flash drive and plug it into the server and copy the files. Is there a way to set up a Remote Desktop system or something to make it easier? My main computer is a Mac Pro, so something Mac-compatible.

Thanks!!

Oh and about your signature: RAP = acronym for Retards Attempting Poetry ;)

Sorry I'm a total idiot :P
How would I go about setting up SSH?


ssh :)

Assuming the server is running Ubuntu these are good instructions
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto

Even if it's another distro you could probably still loosely follow those instructions.

Nice, I added it to my Stumble! profile. So the people that actually look at it might try it.

What is the server running on?
Because chances are you can just
ssh username@domain
IT will prompt you for the user's password, and you're in!
Or, you can use an FTP client, like FileZilla.

Oh yeah... not to sound pushy here... lol the site is good already but perhaps Kubuntu and Xubuntu links as well... those are popular too! I switch between KDE and GNOME (i seem to like KDE more but i got rid of it till intrepid, ps no need to mirror testing images lol) so it could be useful

also, when intrepid comes out, if it would not be too much trouble, perhaps link to the latest REG-RELEASE and the latest LTS-RELEASE?


no need to do anything of this its just my 2cents... heck if it werent for the unrelieablilty of my server at times (and lack of space sometimes too :) ) i would do this... check that i think i will... all the help in the world is needed it seems as linux gets more popular :popcorn:

Added the Intrepid countdown!

When 8.10 comes out, I'll add Kubuntu as well.

Not that anyone actually uses this thing, but would keeping old versions up be of any use to anyone?
