We were having problems with drive space a few weeks ago, but those are all fixed now. I'm just running rsync now (although it does run daily from cron), and it seems incredibly slow.
    /usr/bin/rsync -avzC --timeout=600 --delete \
        --delete-after rsync.php.net::phpweb /www/phpweb
Is that still the right way to run it?  Are we sure this isn't a problem
with rsync.php.net?
We have not changed rsyncing requirements for a long time, the actual info is always at http://php.net/mirroring.php Sometimes rsync.php.net is very slow...

Okay, so I guess my question is this: I am doing what I'm supposed to be doing, and the site is updating regularly ... so why was I deactivated? I think we may be running mod_throttle on that machine, so I suppose it is possible that the PHP site-checking robot got a couple of 503 pages in a row and decided that was that. - Colin
