Hi,

I have added the below entries in /etc/jesred.rules

regex ^http://((.*)archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/(dists|pool)/.*)$
http://172.26.0.164
regex ^http://(security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/(dists|pool)/.*)$
http://172.26.0.164
and restarted squid

I have local ubuntu mirror 172.26.0.164 using deb-mirror method but still it
points to Global mirror
Please suggest

Thanks

Kaushal
