This is pretty simple to set up, but where you've mounted things is irrelevant - it's the webserver setup parts that's specifically critical. You *probably* need to point your webserver's docroot to /media/8TB/ubuntu-mirror for your web server which is running on the same machine. <blockquote type="cite" cite="mid:502c5ef0-9014-7f72-773e-e3591191b8ce@gmail.com"> <pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap=""> I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 for the web server. I have port forwarding set up on my router to redirect calls to the public IP (currently 68.226.101.35) to the web server, which I know still needs some content. However, I can't figure out how to set it up so that a URL of <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://68.226.101.35/ubuntu">http://68.226.101.35/ubuntu</a>) somehow draws content from /media/8TB/ubuntu-mirror.</pre> </blockquote> That's a question of setting up the web server and access permissions properly. Have you started this setup process? If so, what web server and what is your current setup? <blockquote type="cite" cite="mid:502c5ef0-9014-7f72-773e-e3591191b8ce@gmail.com"> <pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap=""> Ancillary question would be how do I finish the setup so that Apache2 would show the mirror from an address of, for instance, http://[mirror].68.226.101.35? This would be preferred, as I also have the cdimage repository correctly mirrored, and stored at /media/8TB/ubuntu-cdimage, and would like to use http://[cdimage].68.226.101.35 for the URL.</pre> </blockquote> Yeah, you can't have [text].[IPADDRESS] for a URL. IP address bare, or get and use a domain with the URL. This is just an Internet-ism, and DNS related, and how URL(s) are constructed. <blockquote type="cite" cite="mid:502c5ef0-9014-7f72-773e-e3591191b8ce@gmail.com"> <pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">The end result would be conformance with whatever the structure is that is reflected in a sources.list file.
