#1 Re: Question: Manage updates of more then one mach Posted by Steve (82.41.xx.xx) on Thu 5 May 2005 at 00:33 There are two obvious solutions to this problem: Use a proxy server Setup a caching proxy server with squid, and then point the second machine's apt configuration to it. Do this by adding the following to the file /etc/apt/apt.conf (creating it if necessary): Acquire::http::Proxy "http://proxy.host.name:port/"; Acquire::ftp::Proxy "http://proxy.host.name:port/"; Use a tool apt-proxy is designed to do this job.
