Help needed what directory do you see

Recommended Posts

Trying to get the driver server issue sorted but need help.

Please click this link

Then copy and paste the the directory name you can see in the index of /dnstest

There will be a line with yellow folder and a directory name.

What I'm testing is a thing called Round Robin DNS if we can get this to work it will mean we should be able to continue on our current server as they auto revolve the server list.

So I need the directory name you see and in what country you ran the test from.

Hopefully there will be more than one name appear that means it is working, each name is the name of the server so lets see how long it takes to find them all :)

If all links are the same then it's not working as it should and back to square one.

Your help appreciated here.

[uPDATE I]

Seeing 2 servers now, there are/is more :)

What would be even better if you tried again after a while and then get another server name pop up. (ie not the same as earlier)

Post back with this news if this happens no need to post again if you get the same server name as before.

A glimmer of hope has appeared :P

Excellent response guys, I'll wade through the results and see if there is a server which is favoured, hopefully all work out similar.

Don't be shy in keeping results coming.

[uPDATE III]

Results as at 9:35am 16th Feb (NZ time)

Bellona 27

Bastet 14

Sobek 8

This result is encouraging, only issue is the Bellona server is our least capable of hosting files.

But Round Robin DNS is partially working which is a relief

I see the same as well.

Now we could be seeing caching going on here or propagation not happened yet.

Best give this some time.

Keep trying though, hopefully it will change to other names

Woohoo that is the 2nd server popping up this is good news.

Not out of the woods yet, I need bellona and another unfound server to pop up also and more regularly.

But there is hope :)

Keep coming back

Yes you've got the 3rd server :) , I'm still on bastet though.

People keep what ever you see coming as it will give me what countries see what at what times.

Sounds like great News. But since the TTL of the DNS entries is set to 3600 seconds (1hr) it will not (if at all) show a new server befor that TTL has passed. I believe that this can work out quite well but the method I described has the advantage of automatically choosing the physically closest mirror based on the country the IP of the visitor comes from.

Also I think community provided mirrors should definitely be considered, since I think that it's a good opportunity for community members to show their support for this great project.

You said you know nothing about mirroring and tried to avoid doing it. But if in some way you are interested or if it becomes necessary in the future, I'd be really glad if I could explain things to you, and show you that it's really not difficult or complicated at all.

BTW: I see bellona here from Germany.

Greetings,

Felix
