But I'm wondering whats the best way to do so, I'm thinking as a bridge, and using firewall rules on the interface with a ip address redirrecting the packets to localhost and running net/cvsup-mirror on the server box? I'd be interested in a similar solution for port distfiles, and I guess squid will do this for me with a bit of configuring? But if anyone has a better idea I'd be interested! Ideas are welcome!
