find your closest mirror - i don't recomment hitting ftp.freebsd.org directly. then start mirroring using rsync or spegla or mirror.pl to your local system.
I guess trial and error for this one.
once complete, send more mail to hu...@freebsd.org and/or your closest domain hostmaster for freebsd.org asking to be added as ftpX.XX.freebsd.org
I'm in CA, basically, I'm going to use it for our internal purposes as well as anyone else that might be interested.
i believe the web pages are generated from CVSup, so you'll need to install and configure that to generate a web mirror.
ok
i would also recommend you install an rsync server for users (and downstream mirrors) to be able to access your archive.
Not a master at working with rsync, but I guess it's time I learned.
lastly, i hope you have a big network pipe/budget to keep up with freebsd package updates.
our traffic is so async, I can continually update the server and it won't affect us at all.
