Greetings,
I am the administrator for cvsup.freebsd.org. I am upgrading the hardware
and also transitioning to a new IP address.
Presently we have:
cvsup.freebsd.org is an alias for n.cwu.edu.
n.cwu.edu has address 198.104.69.57
We need to change that CNAME to point at the new host which has IP address
72.233.193.64:
bsn0-0.edmz.cwu.edu.
We also need to change the permissions on cvsup-master.freebsd.org to allow
72.233.193.64 (bsn0-0.edmz.cwu.edu) to sync from it.
The new server is operational, visible to the Internet and is presently
syncing locally from the old one, n.cwu.edu.
While the CNAME change can happen anytime, it would be ideal if there
could be some overlap in the permissions at cvsup-master - in case the
change is made at an instant when I am not around to apply the
corresponding change on this end.
Regards,

p.s. Back when John Polstra & I set the original machine up circa 2000, we
thought that an 8G repository partion would last a really long time. I
guess it did, but time is running out :)
