Hi, The following mirrors are classified as "unofficial mirrors":
    au.php.net
    au2.php.net
    be2.php.net
    cn2.php.net
    hr.php.net
    cz.php.net
    cz2.php.net
    ir.php.net
    ie.php.net
    my2.php.net
    nz2.php.net
    pt2.php.net
    ru2.php.net
    es.php.net
    ch2.php.net
    tw2.php.net
    ua.php.net
If you visit /mirror.php on any of the above mirrors, you will receive the text "This site is not an official PHP.net mirror site" (I couldn't connect to ru.php.net to check). Also, the footer on each of these sites states "This unofficial mirror is operated at:". The problem lies within an Apache misconfiguration concerning ServerName ( and ServerAlias. The mirroring guide states that a mirror should use:
    ServerName xx.php.net
    ServerAlias the.cname.you.set.up.example.com www.xx.php.net
However, in the above mirrors' cases, they are presumably doing the following:
    ServerName the.cname.you.set.up.example.com
    ServerAlias xx.php.net www.xx.php.net
Could the mirrors be informed, or possibly a new check added to the mirror checking script? Thanks! Dave
