debian mirror from cd set ... not yet.

2002-12-21 Thread CaRLoS mOGUeL
background ...

I'm trying to have a local debian mirror build from my
cd sets in my LAN for various debian servers
instalation.

I already copy all the debs from the cds in my
/var/www/debian location to be ready to use for http
instalation, I tried to build de Packages file using
dpkg-scanpackages.

dpkg-scanpackages needs some arguments like binary
path, exclusion file ... i build a Packages file using
this:

dpkg-scanpackages /var/www/debian /var/www/debian >
Packages

is this correct ? ... is the binary path
/var/www/debian ? I'm not following well the man
dpkg-scanpackages indications, so any clues would be
great.

After that, when I tried to do the instalation it
asked me about a Release file, how can I buil this
release file ? ... I'm not usin apt-proxy because I
wont be connected (updated wor a while) and in the
main server an apt-get autoclean was made.

any advices ? ... any easier way ? ...

Carlos.

Maybe "sac" will do it for you, it allows to take care for overlapping
logins of the same user.

However, you said something about prepaying.  Doesn't that mean you'll
kick out the user of the session if s/he does not close first, or pay
for a prolongation?

This could be done with an "at" job running "slay user" for example.
