What I did was I followed Ritchie Young's suggestion to make the apt-
proxy-import work at least once (logged in as root):

# cd /var/cache/apt-proxy
# find . -name Packages.bz2 -exec bunzip2 -f {} \;

Then I edited my /etc/apt/sources.list to include:

deb http://localhost:9999/ubuntu hardy main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://localhost:9999/ubuntu hardy-updates main restricted universe 
multiverse
deb http://localhost:9999/ubuntu hardy-security main restricted universe 
multiverse

I believe that by doing this, every update/upgrade/dist-upgrade that the
server does would get included in the proxy cache automatically instead
of going into /var/cache/apt/archives directory.

Correct me if my idea is wrong. Thank you. :)
