It is working from another machine with the ftp option.

The http does not work and the Packages.gz where in pathtomirror/.temp/dists/sarge/ and so on but i have made my own Package.gz files now and the contrib and non-free are working so far i am still waiting for the Packages.gz to be finished for main but i expect this to take some time longer due to the larger number of files.

Once again thanks for your help and the great how-to

Thanks for the quick reply

I have the following failure exactly

Err ftp: sarge/non-free Release
Temporary failure resolving ‘dists’
Err http://debian sarge/main Packages
404 Not Found
Ign http://debian sarge/main Release
Err http://debian sarge/contrib Packages
404 Not Found
Ign http://debian sarge/contrib Release
Err http://debian sarge/non-free Packages
404 Not Found
Ign http://debian sarge/non-free Release
Failed to fetch http://debian/dists/sarge/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not
Found

These are my 2 entries in the sources list

deb http://debian/ sarge main contrib non-free
deb ftp:// sarge main contrib non-free

I have used piwd to change the ftp user to where the mirror is store

/mnt/hda3

I also noticed it was needed to add debian to the hosts file afterlocal host to get the ftp slightly further

I have also tried 2 types of configuration for the apache2

Alias /mnt/hda3 “/debian/”
Directory #imagine tag here as not allowed post
AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
Options Indexes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch IncludesNoExec
Directory

and

Alias /debian/ “/mnt/hda3″
Directory “/mnt/hda3″
AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
Options Indexes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch IncludesNoExec
Directory

But it still has the same problem

Shane
