I've setup phoenix.sfsu.edu as a sup server. It is also setup for
anonymous ftp, but I don't mirror everything yet.
The following releases are supported for current:
allsrc ksrc-arm32 ksrc-pmax src-distrib src-sbin
bmake ksrc-atari ksrc-sparc src-domestic src-share
doc ksrc-common ksrc-sun3 src-etc src-usr.bin
games ksrc-hp300 ksrc-vax src-games src-usr.sbin
gnu ksrc-i386 othersrc src-gnu tar_files
include ksrc-m68k regress src-include
ksrc ksrc-mac68k security src-lib
ksrc-alpha ksrc-mvme68k src src-libexec
ksrc-amiga ksrc-pc532 src-bin src-regress
What I did was start with the files on ftp.eecs.umich.edu and add
a few releases plus correct a few. I've also added the src-* releases
for the bandwidth impaired. If you want to see the releases and list files
pickup ftp://phoenix.sfsu.edu/pub/supfilesrv_current.tar.gz
Here is a sample sup file:
current release=allsrc host=phoenix.sfsu.edu hostbase=/a/anon_ftp base=/usr prefix=/usr backup use-rel-suffix delete old compress
current release=security host=phoenix.sfsu.edu hostbase=/a/anon_ftp base=/usr prefix=/usr backup use-rel-suffix delete old compress
current release=othersrc host=phoenix.sfsu.edu hostbase=/a/anon_ftp base=/usr prefix=/usr backup use-rel-suffix delete old compress
current release=doc host=phoenix.sfsu.edu hostbase=/a/anon_ftp base=/usr prefix=/usr backup use-rel-suffix delete old compress
src-domestic and security are the same so if you're outside the US
don't sup those as they contain export restricted software.
If anything is not right or missing, drop me a note and I'll fix it.

P.s. I tried to check my releases against sup.netbsd.org but /pub/sup has
the permissions turned off and the supfilesrv files are not included
in the supkit.
