Running rsync

If you keep your mirrored FreeBSD web pages in the directory /usr/FreeBSD-mirror and are owned by the user `fred', then run the following command as user `fred':

-     $ csup supfile-www
-
- -The file supfile-www contain: -
-       *default host=cvsup.FreeBSD.org
-       *default prefix=/usr/FreeBSD-mirror
-       *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
-       www release="current" delete use-rel-suffix compress
+     $ rsync -vaHz --delete rsync://bit0.us-west.freebsd.org/FreeBSD-www-data/ /usr/FreeBSD-mirror/

This will mirror the FreeBSD web pages into /usr/FreeBSD-mirror. You can install this into fred's crontab, so that it runs once a day.
