Sorry for the delay in reply... Anyway, we don't have a mechanism in place for this yet. In the coming months, you'll have the option of using a web cache like squid, etc. so that you can cache packages as they are retrieved by a particular client. In addition, we'll be expanding the functionality of the client download cache. If you would, open an RFE at defect.opensolaris.org under 'Development -> pkg -> cli' with a request to be able to 'pre-cache' specific packages or packages that are new since the last update, etc. Cheers, -- Shawn Walker
