Has anyone using 11.2 successfully tried to copy the zypper cache
directory from one box to another? Does anyone know whether or not the
existing files will be overwritten or deleted?

I intend to try that, but I haven't done so yet. My intention is to export
the directory via nfs on
one machine, and use it on another. Perhaps somebody has done it and
documented the process? :-?

You might want to have a look at:
http://www.3111skyline.com/linux/openSuSE-LocalUpdate.php

David's done a lot of research on the subject, so you might find some useful
info.


Ah, yes. Setting up a local server for updates would likely be better
than simple copying. Thanks for the link. ( And thanks to Dave for the
info, as well!)
