[GLLUG] Personal APT Debs cache

[Jeff Goeke-Smith]

Yet another possibility is apt-proxy.

Right out of "apt-cache show apt-proxy"
-----------------
Description: Debian archive proxy and partial mirror builder
apt-proxy automatically builds a Debian HTTP mirror based
on requests which pass through the proxy.  It's great for
multiple Debian machines on the same network with a slower
internet link.

The archive is automatically kept up to date using http,
ftp or rsync.  Cache cleaning of unused and old versions
is configurable.  You can also import the contents of
your apt cache into the archive using apt-proxy-import.
-----------------

I've used it once.  I don't recall how it went.  I was tired at the
time.
