Re: Sharing .deb archives
Actually, I have NFS setup and working, but not ftp. I uninstalled
the ftp server a while ago. :-)
I was thinking of something that would allow apt-get to use the
packages on a client machine, from my debian box, w/o having to copy
each file and then run dpkg to install it. Someone suggested I use
apt-proxy, so now I'm reading documentation and trying to set that up.
Thanks!
