I did the above and now on my PXE server I have 12 gb of packages cached.

What I want to do is when I boot the other computers via network, (ie
the boot from tftp on my PXE server) I want them to download all
packages from the apt-cacher-ng, instead of downloading from the
internet repositories.

When I get on the network mirror page on the installation of client, I
try the following

http://{PXE_IP_Address}:3142

but it just won't work.

I have also been advised to use a proxy in the preseed.cfg. However I
am not using any preseed file. My directory listing of tftp folder is

drwxrwxr-x 3 root root 4096 Dec 12 11:48 debian-installer
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   33 Dec 12 11:48 pxelinux.0 ->
debian-installer/amd64/pxelinux.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   35 Dec 12 11:48 pxelinux.cfg ->
debian-installer/amd64/pxelinux.cfg
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root   64 Dec 12 11:48 version.info

Please advice.

Thanks
