Then choose one machine as a "master" machine, and nfs serve /usr/portage/distfiles off of that machine, as well as turn on the rsync server for /usr/portage (excluding the distfiles directory). Then setup a cron to emerge sync and then emerge -Duf world. For all your other machines, have them nfs mount the distfiles directory, and have their SYNC in make.conf point to the "master" rsync server. I do this with a number of machines, and it so far seems to work quite well. Sean -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
