I have a pool of debian machines here too and wanted to have a local cache. I was pointed to apt-proxy. sudo apt-get install apt-proxy Configure /etc/apt/apt-proxy.conf to proxy all of the directories that you would normally download. Then instead of going direct to the main sites your client machines go to your proxy cache instead and it pulls from the main areas. This works great for me. This is a specialized proxy just for deb packages and therefore has some nice features compared to using a squid proxy which is completely generic. apt-proxy rocks! Check it out! Bob
