Mike Smith on the Chugalug mailing list describes how to set up apt-cache:
If it's just for your local stuff setup apt-proxy (assuming Ubuntu/Debian: apt-get install apt-proxy), then change your /etc/apt/sources.list lines from us.archive.ubuntu.com to the.aptproxy.ip.address:9999, port 9999 is the default, you can change it.
I've got 3 machines here that update regularly, I've wanted to set up a cache for this, in fact i've even see the apt-proxy package and installed it, I just needed to get off my butt and get the default port. Now you have the default port too.
