Because of limits imposed by ISP's, I am concerned that the typically
huge updates will exceed the limits. This month I have had over 12Gb
total for both boxes.
How can I fetch all the updates required for both boxes once without
having to become a repository and download everything--which would far
exceed isp's limits. This would probably be some sort of proxy agent
that can read the installed database for each box then fetch each
package once and only once for both boxes. Is there yet a utility to
do that?
So what you need, is something like apt-proxy on Debian, but for
OpenSuse RPMs? If anyone knows about it, please post it on the list,
because I'm also interested.
Why can't you share the cache directory via NFS or Samba?
I don't use zypper, but for my apt/smart usage I do this all the time; works like a charm.
