Re: apt-move question/problem



To quote John Covici <covici@ccs.covici.com>,
# Hi.  I have two machines and I would like to avoid downloading the
# same debian packages for each one since I have a slow connection.  I
# want to use apt-move to make a mirror out of one machine and use it
# for both machines to avoid duplicate downloads.
# 
# I did get it working (sort of), but I want to mirror both the unstable
# and the unstable/non-us distributions -- can I do this or is there a
# better way to go about this?

I had the same issue, but all I did was export the
/var/cache/apt/archives/ through NFS, and then the other machine would
mount it as their own. Pretty simple, and it seems to work. Everything
was then shared.
