apt-cacher certianly works, though I tend to prefer apt-proxy.  You can
also use any HTTP caching proxy (like squid), though that will not give
you as much control as a tool tailored to work with apt.

Can you use apt-proxy as a redirector in squid?

Thanks everybody! I'll have a look at apt-proxy.
