+Yes, thank you - This is exactly what i need for my family server!
+
+I plan to have six computers running mageia 1, server included.
+But having them all install and update individually will consume a bigh chunk 
+on our montly internet connection data budget.
+
+Server is mga1 64 bit - can i install urpmi-proxy there, how?
+
+I found
+https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Urpmi-proxy
+Are there any more instructions somewhere?
+
+I guess that on the client side i just remove all repos, then
+urpmi.addmedia --distrib http://my.local.server.IP/mageia/1/x86_64
+
+Can i have urpmi-proxy proxy both x86_64 repos, and i586, for the different 
+clients?  And also cauldron for two (dual boot) clients?
+
+
+
+On a side note, any tip what to use to proxy all http easily?
+And if possible all youtube; my children watch many times the same film...
+(But thanks to gcompris and other awesome educative games that use has 
+decreased)
