The [[gp:Computer Science|Computer Science Department]] (CS) runs a relatively old machine that mirrors for a few smaller distributions of GNU/Linux, including Arch and Knoppix. The Arch mirror has now been updated so it has current packages. Their mirrors are available at [httphttps://mirror.cs.vt.edu/ httphttps://mirror.cs.vt.edu/].It has* Arch* Rocky* Cygwin* Slackware* EPEL (an additional package repository for Enterprise Linux distros [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL]

There are existing on campus mirrors for a lot of popular distributions, so while mirror.ece([[User:Telnoratti]] seems to run this now.vt.edu will host them it will focus on providing more unusual requests from the community.
