It's getting late tonight to try this - before I do so tomorrow, does anyone |
2 |
have any thoughts about the following plan? |
3 |
|
4 |
I want one machine facing the internet that's my local mirror and if |
5 |
a client needs something that's not on the mirror, the emerge will fail and |
6 |
I'll get it onto the mirror manually first. |
7 |
|
8 |
I'm thinking I need to set these variables: |
9 |
- make.conf: FEATURES = force-mirror |
10 |
- make.conf: GENTOO_MIRRORS doesn't seem to do anything |
11 |
- /etc/portage/mirrors: |
12 |
local http://192.168.0.4/distfiles |
13 |
|
14 |
I've already set up /etc/portage/repos.conf on the clients and rsyncd on |
15 |
the server. The local mirror of ebuilds seems to work. I've also set up |
16 |
my apache server to have access to the local repository (I'm somewhat |
17 |
less sure of my distfiles server) |
18 |
|
19 |
/var/log/emerge* tells me that emerge on clients is going out directly |
20 |
to the internet instead of getting packages from my mirror. That's what |
21 |
I'm trying to prevent. |

Any thoughts will be appreciated. |
