??? Do you have two Dial-In line? 1) You => Internet => Debian-Server 2) You => your friends apt-proxy ??? If it goes the same connection, then it will no benefit. I have tried around 40 Debian Mirrors and no one give me less then 8 MBit which is my ADSL in France. You can have only an avantage, if YOU run the apt-proxy for your own network and you install more then one machine. On the other hand you can mirror a Debian site (which I do because I am installing/upgrading 5-20 Machines per week) > Thank you! > Best regards Greetings Michelle -- Linux-User #280138 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org/ ##################### Debian GNU/Linux Consultant ##################### Michelle Konzack Apt. 917 ICQ #328449886 50, rue de Soultz MSM LinuxMichi 0033/3/88452356 67100 Strasbourg/France IRC #Debian (irc.icq.com) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
