Many project are mirrored worldwide. Mirmon helps in monitoring these mirrors. In a concise graphic format, mirmon shows each site's history of the last two weeks, making it easy to spot stale or dead mirrors. Mirmon quietly probes a subset of the sites in a given list, writes the results in the "state" file, and generates a Web page with the results. The package includes a Perl module called Mirmon.pm; this makes it easy to write applications related to mirmon.

Release Notes: Some bugs were fixed.


Release Notes: Minor enhancements and bugfixes.


Release Notes: The Mirmon.pm Perl module is now included in the package. This module makes it easy to create applications that do things like mailing administrators about stale mirrors, directing users to fresh mirrors, etc. The documentation was improved.


Release Notes: The mirmon mirror list can now have rsync urls like rsync://rsync.apache.org/apache-dist. The mirmon distribution now contains a sample program 'probe', which is a simple Perl program for probing FTP, HTTP, and rsync mirrors. A new directive 'no-add-slash' prevents mirmon from adding a trailing slash to URLs when one is missing. The distribution now contains a mirmon.1 man page source. Mirmon now lives in a subversion repository, which makes upgrading easier.
