Re: Local mirroring How-To?

Greetings;
I remember there was a discussion sometime back about this but I can't
locate it.
Here is my situation. I have six Debian/Lenny machines that I have to
update/upgrade at various times, and some of these runs take hours for
each system over my 768Kbs connection.
I have the space to install a local mirror of one or two releases of
Debian so I can do updates over my local net at 100 Mbs and speed
things up considerably.
But ... I can't find anything current about how to do that.
Does anybody have any pointers to a good, and current, set of
directions on how to do this? Or have a cookbook that works for you?
Many TIA!
Dennis
its pretty simple to set up your own mirror
i kept some notes on the link below on how to set up a full mirror
http://www.songshu.org/index.php/setup-a-debian-apt-mirror
alternatively this is actually what i use on my LAN, it caches a .deb
file when you download it once so it saves a lot of disk space compared
to the full mirror.
