This is just crying after an home rsync server like described here -> http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Local_Rsync_Mirror After read this i thought if it wouldn't be better to just export "/usr/portage" via nfs to every client in my network, and run "emerge --sync" once 1 day on my router. This has the advantage that the clients don't need to waste the drive space for the ebuilds, and i can save time for downloading distfiles. The only thing on the client is to make an "emerge --metadata". Would this work or have i forgotten something? greetz alex -- * IMPORTANT: 217 config files in /etc need updating -- gentoo-server@gentoo.org mailing list
