I am thinking to setup a server on our college's internal network, which can host some very common apt-get packages. As there are many Ubuntu users in my college, it would save us and even other Ubuntu servers some bandwith.
What I want is that I setup a server similar to those listed in the "Download From" in the software sources. If a person tries apt-get install , Ubuntu should go to my personal server, if it finds the package there, fetch from there else go to some alternate server.
Is it possible? And how can I go about this?
Thank You
