We are experimenting with mirrorbits as a mirroring solution for Kali. But all the mirrors we add they always appear as 'Down'.
- Adding the mirror:
$ mirrorbits add -http http://archive-4.kali.org archive-4.kali.org -rsync rsync://archive-4.kali.org archive-4.kali.org
Mirror location:
Latitude: 48.8582
Longitude: 2.3387
Continent: EU
Country: France
ASN: OVH SAS (16276)
Mirror 'archive-4.kali.org' added successfully
Enable this mirror using
$ mirrorbits enable archive-4.kali.org
- Enabling the mirror:
$ mirrorbits enable archive-4.kali.org
Mirror 'archive-4.kali.org' enabled successfully
- The mirror appears down with a very suspicious date:
$ mirrorbits list | grep archive-4.kali.org
archive-4.kali.org down (Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 UTC)
- I tried scanning:
$ mirrorbits scan archive-4.kali.org
Scanning archive-4.kali.org... done
- Same results:
$ mirrorbits list | grep archive-4.kali.org
archive-4.kali.org down (Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 UTC)
Note the redirection works just fine on the Fallback mirror.
This is our configuration in case it helps:

It turns out I have been using the wrong URL. Closing.
