Hi all.
I'm looking for recommendations on a simple http/ftp proxy. The only
thing I want it for at the moment is to cache packages when I upgrade
my debian boxes, so that I don't need to download the same updates
over again when updating a different machine.
This would be running on a machine not accessible from the outside
(over IPv4 anyway), so user authentication isn't something I really
need here. It would be nice if the proxy supports IPv6, but if it
doesn't, I guess I could live with that. I've had a look at squid, but
it seems overkill for what I want. Any suggestions would be
appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Greg

I would just rsync what ever you want and then use your local box as a
repository.
That is what I did for years at the ISP I worked for so we could have local
updates available to us and our customers.

You're probably looking at apt-cacher or apt-cacher-ng
A google of caching debian install packages will net you something.
The other filthy dirty way to do this is to set up rsync machine to put
contents of /var/cache/archive onto other boxes however apt-cacher-ng is
nicer.
Regards, Kerry.
