It should do. It tells the client systems where to fetch distfiles from. You |
| 14 |
should only have the local server specified in here, or they will recursively |
| 15 |
use other external mirrors listed until they find the source files they are |
| 16 |
trying to emerge. |

This will only be used if the ebuild specifies a URI as a 'mirror://'. Many |
| 23 |
ebuilds don't (e.g. chromium). |

Since you're using http, test with wget to see what the server provides and |
| 32 |
keep an eye on the apache server logs for any misconfiguration errors. |
