Distributing On My Network

[rajasekharan1]

Hi,

I have to manage a network of computers that run Ubuntu. I would like these computers to be able to install additional software as required using apt-get Add/Remove software page..

If all of these computers connect to the internet to download the same files over and over again, it will be a waste of the bandwidth.

I would like to know how I can create a local repository that mirrors the required files and use that to distribute software for all the computers in the network.


Thanks,
Raj

Google "local apt mirror" or something similar...

e.g.

Hope that helps
