Elements
   cache - approx cache directory

       approx server (see also the $user and $group parameters, below.)Optional. Type uniline. upstream_default: '/var/cache/approx'.

   interval - file cache expiration in minutes
       Specifies the time in minutes after which a cached file will be considered too old to deliver without first checking with the remote
       repository for a newer version. Optional. Type integer. upstream_default: '720'.

   max_rate - maximum download rate from remote repositories
       Specifies the maximum download rate from remote repositories, in bytes per second (default: unlimited). The value may be sufaXX fixed with
       "K", "M", or "G" to indicate kilobytes, megabytes, or gigabytes per second, respectively.Optional. Type uniline.

   max_redirects - maximum number of HTTP redirections
       Specifies the maximum number of HTTP redirections that will be followed when downloading a remote file. Optional. Type integer.
       upstream_default: '5'.

   user - user that owns the files in the approx cache
       Optional. Type uniline. upstream_default: 'approx'.

   group - group that owns the files in the approx cache
       Optional. Type uniline. upstream_default: 'approx'.

   syslog - syslog(3) facility to use when logging
       Optional. Type uniline. upstream_default: 'daemon'.

   pdiffs - support IndexFile diffs
       Optional. Type boolean. upstream_default: '1'.

   offline - use cached files when offline
       Specifies whether to deliver (possibly out-of-date) cached files when they cannot be downloaded from remote repositories. Optional. Type
       boolean. upstream_default: '0'.

   max_wait - max wait for concurrent file download
       Specifies how many seconds an approx(8) process will wait for a concurrent download of a file to complete, before attempting to download
       the file itself. Optional. Type integer. upstream_default: '10'.

   verbose
       Specifies whether informational messages should be printed in the log. Optional. Type boolean. upstream_default: '0'.

   debug
       Specifies whether debug messages should be printed in the log. Optional. Type boolean. upstream_default: '0'.

       The other name/value pairs are used to map distribution names to remote repositories. For example,

	 debian     =>	 http://ftp.debian.org/debian
	 security   =>	 http://security.debian.org/debian-security

NAME

       approx.conf - configuration file for approx proxy server

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/approx/approx.conf

DESCRIPTION

       Each  non-blank line of the configuration file should contain a name/value pair, separated by white space.  Comments start with a "#" char-
       acter and continue to the end of the line.

       Names that begin with the "$" character are reserved for use as configuration parameters.  The following parameters are currently defined:

       $cache Specifies the location of the approx cache directory (default: /var/cache/approx).  It and all its subdirectories must be  owned	by
	      the approx server (see also the $user and $group parameters, below.)

       $interval
	      Specifies the time in minutes after which a cached file will be considered too old to deliver without first checking with the remote
	      repository for a newer version (default: 60)

       $max_rate
	      Specifies the maximum download rate from remote repositories, in bytes per second (default: unlimited).  The value may  be  suffixed
	      with "K", "M", or "G" to indicate kilobytes, megabytes, or gigabytes per second, respectively.

       $max_redirects
	      Specifies the maximum number of HTTP redirections that will be followed when downloading a remote file (default: 5)

       $user, $group
	      Specifies the user and group that owns the files in the approx cache (default: approx)

       $syslog
	      Specifies the syslog(3) facility to use when logging (default: daemon)

       $pdiffs
	      Specifies whether to support IndexFile diffs (default: true)

       $offline
	      Specifies  whether  to deliver (possibly out-of-date) cached files when they cannot be downloaded from remote repositories (default:
	      false)

       $max_wait
	      Specifies how many seconds an approx(8) process will wait for a concurrent download of a file  to  complete,  before  attempting	to
	      download the file itself (default: 10)

       $verbose
	      Specifies whether informational messages should be printed in the log (default: false)

       $debug Specifies whether debugging messages should be printed in the log (default: false)

       The other name/value pairs  are used to map distribution names to remote repositories.  For example,

	      debian	      http://ftp.debian.org/debian
	      security	      http://security.debian.org

TCP PORT NUMBER

       The  port  on  which approx(8) listens is not specified in this file, but in /etc/inetd.conf.  The default value is 9999, for compatibility
       with apt-proxy(8), but it may be changed by running the command

	      dpkg-reconfigure approx
