Sorry, didn't mean to sound ambiguous - there is a whitelist of hosts
you get already in simple text encoding if you log onto mirrormanager
and click through to it.

By automating I mean this list that you then should be able to pull
w/o authentication via wget to shove into rsync's config. AFAICT you
need to be logged in to get the list, so this cannot be placed into a
cron job that would automatically fetch the list and whitelist new
mirrors w/o any mirror admin intervention.
