OK, done.
rsync.uni-bayreuth.de and ftp.uni-bayreuth.de are different hosts
sharing the same file-system.
rsync.uni-bayreuth.de ist the host controlling the file-system and
mirroring/rsyncing the distributions.
ftp.uni-bayreuth.de is the "user front end". On this host, the
file-system is only available "read-only".
Nevertheless for the user wanting to fetch the content it is more
logical, if there is only one host in the database. So I removed
"rsync.uni-bayreuth.de" from the database and updated the record for
"ftp.uni-bayreuth.de" and added
"rsync:/rsync.uni-bayreuth.de/fedora-linux-enchilada/linux" to the
category "Fedora Linux".
If there are any further problems concerning our entry, please tell me.
Well, I only wanted the path to be correct. ;)
And
rsync:/rsync.uni-bayreuth.de/fedora-linux-enchilada/linux
isn't correct due to a typo and a non-existant "fedora-linux-enchilada".
The correct path would be:
rsync://rsync.uni-bayreuth.de/fedora-enchilada/linux
^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
