Hi folks, To reduce network load and speed up upgrades I have installed a caching proxy on one of my machines (using Apache). But it doesn't work very well. Packages are downloaded from http.us.debian.org, even if they should have been taken from the cache due to an upgrade of another machine just a few minutes ago.
The cache size is 300 MByte, so I doubt that this happens due to lack of space. And cheating Round Robin by using an IP address instead of 'http.us.debian.org' didn't help either. Does anybody out there know what is the problem here? Maybe its the failure of Apache. What are your suggestions for running a cache for apt-get? Regards Harri
