  1. Customize update_mirror.py for your site, by editing it and making the following changes:
 
-   a. set mirrorRootDir to the root directory of your mirror, presumably the directory created in step (1) above.
-   a. set desiredProductList to contain a list of the data products you want to mirror.
-   a. Possibly update topURI, if the distribution server at IfA has changed from its current host.
-  a. Possibly modify hiddenProductList to include the names of new data products not visible from the top distribution layer.  This bit is a little cryptic- the original spec for the distribution mechanism said that the data products would be visible from the top level directory of the distribution server, but this has been changed for security reasons.  New products are now announced on the IPP mailing lists and must be edited into hiddenProductList manually.
