[Linuxcoe-users] Using Mirrors

[Cusick, J. C. N. 5. <joh...@na...>]

To All,

I've setup LinuxCoe locally and first tests have been basically successful. 

I do have one question regarding waystations, however.

I was under the impression that the entire workstation would be loaded from the server entered as the OSVEND, but that does not seem to be the case. Although the install starts from there, the packages are downloaded from outside-the-local-network mirrors instead of the locally setup mirror.

Is there a way from within LinuxCOE to force the local mirror as the only download point? Specifically, I have an Ubuntu waystation/mirror setup and although it correctly used the waystation/mirror during the initial load phase, once the software install started it accessed us.archive.ubuntu.com. I would like it to use the local mirror only.

In case this is not the best place to ask questions, is there a better list or forum to use?

Thanks

John C
