Holas, I'm running http-replicator on a desktop (server). The laptop asks the desktop for files correctly, and that works just fine.
The problem I'm seeing is on the desktop. Every night I do # emerge world --update --deep --newuse --fetchonly # /usr/bin/repcacheman which gets all the files I'll need (into /usr/portage/distfiles), and then moves all the files to http-rep cache (/var/cache/http-replicator). The next time I run # emerge -autvDN world portage looks in /usr/portage/distfiles ($DISTDIR in make.conf), and, of course, doesn't see the files. They've been moved to /var/cache/http-replicator. Then portage grabs the files, without consulting http-replicator. Now, like I said, everything works fine for external machines. They immediately use port 8080. It's just the desktop/http-rep server that doesn't use want to use the http-rep cache. Here are a few pertinent lines from /etc/make.conf http_proxy="http://crichton:8080"; RESUMECOMMAND="/usr/bin/wget -t 5 --passive-ftp \${URI} -O \ \${DISTDIR}/\${FILE}" # ping crichton PING localhost (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. Any idea what I have mis-configured? Thanks.
