Dear Sirs,
I am wondering how can update / upgrade for more than one PC (in my LAN). In more details :
I have a LAN with three Debian bases computers. All of them are connected to internet via NAT, anyway that not the point.
The real question is the following: who can download the .deb packages to one pc and when I do apt-get upgrade (to the rest two) to use these packages and not to download 3 times the same packages???

Do you understand what I meed/mean ??? I can not write goot English by the way...

Best Regards
Mike Kranidis

make that computer the one that apt takes the packages from, that is, edit /etc/apt/sources.list to point to the right directory in the network.

You are looking for the apt-proxy or apt-move packages.
