The LUG Mirror server mirrors a number of different Linux distros.
Currently, we mirror Debian (+ISOs), Arch Linux, CentOS (+AltArch), gentoo, Fedora (+EPEL &RPMfusion), and Ubuntu (+ISOs). The full list can be seen by going to https://mirrors.lug.mtu.edu/
Mirrors is a standalone [https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/povw/poweredge-r730xd/1000 Dell R730xd] server (3.5" drive bay variant) running FreeBSD.▼
=== Hardware ===
It uses ZFS as the filesystem for the root pool and primary pool that's used for the distribution mirrors (the pool named <code>lug</code>)▼

=== Operating System ===
Mirrors runs FreeBSD.

It used to use salt, but it broke when upgrading from FreeBSD 12-14. Currently, all maintenance is done by hand (this is a good thing)
At its core, a mirror server performs two functions:
On our mirrors, this is accomplished with archvsync+cron to synchronize content with upstream, and vsftpd+rsyncd+nginx to handle hosting the content.

==== Certificates ====
Put the certificate (the 'intermediate' download option from our Certificate Authority) in <code>/usr/local/share/certs/mirrors_lug_mtu_edu_bundle.cer</code>, and the key in <code>/usr/local/share/certs/mirrors_lug_mtu_edu.key</code>
You can view the nginx configuration in <code>/usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf</code> to view and change settings. This file is no longer managed by salt, and can be edited by hand.
