Using Nginx reverse proxy function to set up Ubuntu upgrade source

BNU's network situation has said before, the school must have a certification gateway to the network. In order to facilitate the campus students to easily (without cost) upgrade Ubuntu, you can make full use of the resources of the server, do a Ubutu school upgrade source.

The machine is older, do not have a big hard drive, do a source words need at least the space of hundred g, not too realistic. So Kangzj thought out this method, in the school can be a network on the server on the reverse proxy a fast source of Ubuntu. I chose the USTC Ubuntu source (thank you), the speed can reach 10M. Very simple, built a virtual host, and then solve the problem, the following attached nginx configuration file:

server { Listen 80; server_name gnu.xinqing100.net; Access_log/var/log/nginx/gnu.xinqing100.net.access.log; location/ubuntu/{ Proxy_pass http://debian.ustc.edu.cn/ubuntu/; } location/icons/{ Proxy_pass http://debian.ustc.edu.cn/icons/; } }

Just modify the source.list to:

Debhttp://gnu.xinqing100.net/ubuntu/Jaunty main restricted universe multiverse Debhttp://gnu.xinqing100.net/ubuntu/jaunty-security main restricted universe multiverse Debhttp://gnu.xinqing100.net/ubuntu/jaunty-updates main restricted universe multiverse Debhttp://gnu.xinqing100.net/ubuntu/jaunty-backports main restricted universe multiverse Debhttp://gnu.xinqing100.net/ubuntu/jaunty-proposed main restricted universe multiverse DEB-SRChttp://gnu.xinqing100.net/ubuntu/Jaunty main restricted universe multiverse DEB-SRChttp://gnu.xinqing100.net/ubuntu/jaunty-security main restricted universe multiverse DEB-SRChttp://gnu.xinqing100.net/ubuntu/jaunty-updates main restricted universe multiverse DEB-SRChttp://gnu.xinqing100.net/ubuntu/jaunty-backports main restricted universe multiverse DEB-SRChttp://gnu.xinqing100.net/ubuntu/jaunty-proposed main restricted Universe Multiverse universe Multiverse

If it is 9.04, you can use this directly;

8.10 change jaunty to intrepid.

8.04 change jaunty to Hardy.

9.10 change jaunty to karmic.

The campus can not be upgraded through the gateway to Ubuntu or even the network installed Ubuntu!
