[gentoo-user] portage and local mirrors

[John Jolet]

We're trying to set up a local portage repository for our webservers to use, 
as we'd like our webservers to NOT have compilers and other dev tools on 
them.  We'd prefer to have the webservers get the packages via rsync over 
ssh, but I can't seem to find anywhere to specify that transport for getting 
packages.  I'm assuming to make it look at my repository server, we put that 
server in the "MIRRORS" in the global make.conf file, correct?  And I realize 
we can specify rsync:// as the url to make it use rsync, but I  need it to 
use a specific user for ssh authentication, and ssh as the transport.

Thanks.
