Use a proxy to grant relief the FreeBSD servers

Hi,

I would like to set up a proxy for all portsnap actions from our NOC. Not only to relieve the freebsd.org servers, but to speed up the repeated downloads of the same files from a few hundred machines. Is there a recommended way to do so?

Thanks a lot for your suggestions in advance.

I did. I even searched for proxy, but found nothing that fits except general notes about proxies. I'm able to set up a proxy, but I wonder if there are some known caveats about using a proxy with portsnap etc. And about this, I did not find posts. Please point me to the posts, if I blindly missed them. Sometimes I'm too scatty :(

Thanks!
