As always with Debian, there are many ways to solve the problem. Everything depends on your needs/skills/... The howto above is based on apt-move and only useful, if you 1. know what packages should go into the mirror (of course, dependencies are handled automatically) 2. you like to have the control over what is in the mirror 3. you like to/have to prepare the mirror before using it 4. you don't like to have any interferences between the server which hosts the mirror and the packages in the mirror itself apt-proxy works in a different way, but might be useful for you.
