Maybe replace it with an APT proxy? Updating a full mirror takes
bandwidth of its own. It may not be worth it for a single station or
two.

(Hmm... there was a wiki page explaining about proxying apt, IIRC. I

Actually the local repo will be for 12 servers(etch and lenny) and the 2 NSLU2(Lenny), that's why I wanted to be multi arch, nevertheless I will look foward for APT Proxy, thank you Tzafrir.
