NAME

       jigdo-mirror - Maintain a mirror of images offered with jigdo

SYNOPSIS

       jigdo-mirror [ config-file ]

DESCRIPTION

       See jigdo-file(1) for an introduction to Jigsaw Download.

       jigdo-mirror  is  a  script  intended  for  people  who  want  to offer direct HTTP or FTP
       downloads of files for which only the jigdo and template files are available.

       As the first step of  using  jigdo-mirror,  you  need  to  set  up  normal  HTTP/FTP/rsync
       mirroring  both of the `.jigdo'/`.template' files and of the parts that are needed for the
       reconstruction of the images. For example, in the case that you want to mirror  Debian  CD
       images with jigdo-mirror, you need a mirror of the `.jigdo'/`.template' files and a Debian
       mirror on the local machine.

       At regular intervals (preferably immediately after the  normal  mirroring  has  finished),
       schedule  a run of jigdo-mirror. It will search through a given directory for any `.jigdo'
       files and attempt to create all images offered by each file.

       The script requires you to set a number of variables  -  please  refer  to  the  start  of
       /usr/bin/jigdo-mirror  for a description of each of them. Since /usr/bin/jigdo-mirror will
       be overwritten whenever you upgrade jigdo-mirror, it is highly recommended not  to  change
       the settings directly in this script. Instead, personal settings should be saved in a file
       called .jigdo-mirror in your home directory, or in a different file  whose  name  is  then
       passed to the script as its first (and only) command line argument.
