Submit Mirror Information
If you would like to submit information about a mirror of Debian, you can do so using the form below. Information provided will be displayed in the mirror list.
Please note that all submitted mirrors should follow the rules and guidelines laid out in our documentation. In particular,
- you should be using ftpsync to mirror Debian,
- pick a good upstream (not a (http) service name like
ftp.CC.debian.org
, not DNS round robins, not CDNs), - update four times a day to match the archive update frequency (or set up
triggers with upstream, or use
ftpsync-cron
hourly to monitor your upstream for changes and initiate syncs). Furthermore, - your mirror must have an appropriately named tracefile (ftpsync will do that if MIRRORNAME is set correctly),
- should touch
/Archive-Update-in-Progress-XXX
and/Archive-Update-Required-XXX
flagfiles when appropriate (again, ftpsync will do that for you) to help mirrors downstream of you to sync correctly.
Your site should appear on the list within a couple of weeks, as soon as a human operator verifies it and includes it. We will email you in case of any problems with the submitted entry.
If you don't get any feedback within three months, you can contact us at mirrors@debian.org.
