I have four or five machines running linux on our local network.  Can someone point me 
to the easy instructions for setting up a cache of packages on one system, so that if 
packages are already on a local machine, they won't be ftped again?  

It's a tribute to Debian GNU/Linux that, running sid on these machines, which were 
disconnected for some six to seven months, three so far have upgraded without a single 
major problem using apt-get and aptitude.  Aptitude has worked, when apt-get didn't.  
Thanks to everyone from a long time use, who never "got it" as far as developing 
packages. (Too busy teaching and doing science).
