+There are many ways to setup the rsync of the website.  A basic bash script is shown below, which will rsync the website and email you should there be any errors:
+
+{{{
+#!/bin/sh
+
+SITE=cross-lfs.org
+MODULE=clfs-www
+LOCAL=/path/to/mirror                  # Change this value
+USER=admin@domain.com                  # Change this value
+MAILER=/usr/sbin/sendmail              # Change this value
+
+[ -d "$LOCAL" ] || mkdir -p $LOCAL
+
+OUTPUT=`rsync -clprtv --delete ${SITE}::${MODULE} ${LOCAL} 2>&1`
+
+if [ $? -ne 0 -o `echo -e "${OUTPUT}" | wc -l` -ne 4 ] ; then
+    (echo -e "Subject: cross-lfs.org mirror - Rsync Error\n"; echo -e "${OUTPUT}") | ${MAILER} ${USER};
+fi
+}}}
+
+The most basic would be just running the rsync command directly in cron or fcron:
+
+{{{
+rsync -clprt --delete cross-lfs.org::clfs-www /path/to/mirror
+}}}
