in reply to Mirroring CPAN Search

I've recently set up a CPAN mirror at my office for use internally by the 30 or so servers that I code on. This was generally not for the benefit of the cpan servers/mirrors, although it is a side effect, but rather for my personal selfish reasons... I wanted faster/more reliable CPAN connection times. I definitely love having my own little CPAN, and the setup of the mirror was extraordinarily easy. Yay!
Cool. I want to do that here. Do you have a pointer to instructions on how to set a CPAN mirror?

    It's in the CPAN FAQ.

    Thanks for the responses so far. I will look into the CPAN::Search::Lite module.
