I'm a Maven newbie (but also a fast learner ;) ), but have also setup a repository on a LAN. Used Apache to make the doc public and accessible easily by the download engine. Works perfectly and Apache is quite easy to install / configure both on Windows and Linux boxes.
file protocol is handy for a "real" local repository (same machine) but on a LAN, especially if you mix Win and Linux machines, refering to file using the UNC notation becomes quite tricky, and is not browser independant to add up :(.
hope it helps Eric.

Hi Maven folk,
Is it possible to add a directory on the company LAN to maven.repo.remote using the file:// protocol? I need to do it because we haven't yet completely migrated to Maven, and we have a central built artifacts reposaitory on our LAN, in which I wanna search for and retrieve to maven.repo.local my project's dependencies. Is it possible at all? Am I doing something wrong?
I'm trying to configure maven.repo.remote = http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/,
file:///build_pps/public/repo,
file:///ilfss/data/products
I'm getting the following error: -------------- 8< ------------- 8< -------------------------------------- Attempting to download PECAN-3.50.0.9.zip.

Thanks, Amnon
