This kind of sucks.  Are there other whitebox mirrors that allow rsync? If
I can get cooperation (from both ends), I'll ask management if we can
dedicate a server with at least raid1 to being a whitebox (and maybe other
things) mirror/rsync server for other mirrors.  We've got pipe (couple
hundred mbit/s to the net...and always growing).  The current
whitebox.atlantic.net does enough other things that I wouldn't feel good
about opening up an rsyncd on it.
