I don't have a webserver set up and it needs http or ftp access for apt-get to work it would seem from my brief tests. -----------------------------------------
No, it looks like you can use local file. Open up software sources ---> other software and hit the add button. Paste the following into your the URI field. If I've got it right it should work and populate the other required fields: deb file:///media/UbuntuAURepository/Ubuntu oneiric main restricted universe multiverse Should do it, assuming I've got the path right. Fingers crossed. Hey, you could _always_ update your machines this way - you'd never have to bother with on line vagaries or slow speeds if the servers are busy. Even the new release ISOs will magically appear one day, assuming you've got the cron job running everyday. I think you could replace "main restricted universe multiverse" with just "all" and it may still work. Chris.
