Nope, hadn't heard of it! Looks helpful, though I think my way is more flexible, as I can specify any number of local computers' URLs, and it downloads from whichever one is on and/or has the file. > Personally I just run squid. I've never looked into squid... How does that work / relate to serving distfiles, or how is it better than just having, say, apache running? _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev
