ftp archives disappearing?

Dave wrote... Uggg... I'd really rather not... for a few internal reasons mostly having to do with our logging infrastructure. In the final analysis it's Al's call though, not mine. What I personally would like to set up is something so that any http request is automatically directed from my server to each of the mirrors, round robin. Thus evenly distributing the load on a file by file basis. I had an apache module that would do exactly this very nicely, but I couldn't get it to compile for some reason and backburnered it. Just doing round robin DNS is NOT what I was looking for. In addition, and totally separately, I want to set up a bittorrent for it as well. Time permitting.....I will get to it :) Those are my ideas in any case, and I would run them by Al before implementing them of course. Jay
