We recommend mirroring 4 times a day, A mirror is considered old if the last
update is more than 12 hours ago.

As the "active" one will still be the old cr*p hardware until 01.10., it 
unfortunately is not surprising it has been hanging and thus lagging behind 
again. It should sync now, and from October on this problem should not reoccour.

What actually is the recommended mirror interval? The current one was apparently 
set to 24 hours, which seems a bit high compared to the others in the mirror 
list.

Now the rsync link text is correct, but all link texts except the rsync one have 
a double-slash :)

Thanks for the hint. 
I updated our mirror file, but unless mirmon (http://mirror.grml.org/) says
that the mirror is up2date, it won't get listed.

I fixed that bug, thanks for the hint.

Please update the mirror list to reflect changes at the Mirror in Erlangen: The 
machine will be replaced by new hardware, and should be using the domain fau.de 
instead of uni-erlangen.de in the future for "corporate identity" reasons.
A patch for your mirrorinfo-file that Google found me would look something like 
this:

-Site: ftp.uni-erlangen.de
+Site: ftp.fau.de
 Type: Secondary
-Grml-http: /pub/mirrors/grml/
-Grml-ftp: /pub/mirrors/grml/
-Maintainer: ?
+Grml-http: /grml/

http://grml.org/download/mirrors/ currently also lists rsync as an available 
protocol. That is not currently correct (and currently isn't listed in the 
mirrorinfo file, so it's probably a bug that this shows?), but RSYNC will be 
starting October 01 when the machine is replaced with new hardware. BTW: the 
text for all rsync links in that list is missing a "/" between the hostname an 
the directory.
