If you run rsync in browse mode you can see what the remote offers: $ rsync rsync://pkgsrc.smartos.org pkgsrc https://pkgsrc.smartos.org/ So instead of /packages use /pkgsrc: $ rsync rsync://pkgsrc.smartos.org/pkgsrc drwxr-xr-x 15 2025/11/14 08:35:53 . -rw-r--r-- 5,018 2022/07/15 16:04:27 favicon.ico ... and that'll eventually lead you to: rsync://pkgsrc.smartos.org/pkgsrc/packages/SmartOS/trunk/Would it be possible to provide a more detailed write-up on how to get such mirror set up?
I would expect such page to exist at the main wiki here: https://github.com/TritonDataCenter/pkgsrc/wikibut I suppose this matter has never had much priority to get documented properly. Which I can understand!
I'll take a look at adding this. Thanks, -- Jonathan Perkin pkgsrc.smartos.org Open Source Complete Cloud www.tritondatacenter.com
