okay... i'm confused ... what does each subdir dor ??
( /a/l and /a/o and /a/u and /a/a and /a/x .. etc..etc.. )
- granted i started looking and kinda backed out
without digging into each line of code ( why so many /a subdirs )
--------
if i wanted a time stamp at a particular time:
tar zcvf DATE.tgz the whole-local-tree
or do incrementals of only the changed stuff ..
and burn onto cdrom ( if its critical to not mess it up )
--------
after apt-get update && upgrade, why not just use apt-move to move
/var/lib/cache into /home/httpd/local-deb-mirror ?
/etc/apt-move.conf is fairly simple to config/modify
...
LOCALDIR=/home/httpd/html/DebianMirror
"apt-move update" which is the equivalent of:
apt-move get
apt-move move
apt-move delete
apt-move packages
- granted this only mirrors/moves the files used on the
server and not the entire tree
