If these machines are all running the same OS (10.4, 10.5) and platform (Intel, PowerPC), you can copy the /sw directory. (You probably want to exclude /sw/src if you're doing that, that's where all of the downloaded package sources will be. You could also move them aside and configure fink to look in an alternate directory for downloaded package sources. That's one way to get machines to pull in your 'mirror', actually -- move them to a folder that you're sharing off your machine, and configure the client machines to mount that share and look in that folder for sources.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
