Thanks a lot for offering to host a Tails mirror; as Tails is getting
more and more popular, we definitely need more mirrors.

I tested your setup and I think there is a problem somewhere. I tried to
fetch http://dl.amnesia.boum.org/tails/stable/ on your server and got a
404 error.

Here is the command I used:

curl --verbose --connect-timeout 30 --header 'Host: dl.amnesia.boum.org'
http://23.239.26.97/tails/stable/

The cron has to be scheduled every hour + 15 minutes. That's in cron format:

15 * * * *

But anyway, unfortunately, recently we hit a bug in the Tor resolver
that prevents us from adding more than about 25 servers in our DNS pool.

See https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/11741.

So we can't add your mirror to the DNS pool at the moment. We will
contact you back once we can make a real use of your service.
