User Repository How-To Question

I don't know if this belongs here, but this question goes pretty deep into the code, but how did bunsenlabs manage to create a custom repository on a webserver??? I am a fellow linux hacker myself, and I am currently working on my own Linux Remix, but I want to be completely independent from the distribution I forked (Ubuntu/Debian) starting with my own repositories (not local, online) so my question is how did you create yours?

Thanks and goodluck,

Re: User Repository How-To Question

One extra remark regarding the online/offline distinction: 'Online' just means pointing a webserver at the repository's directory hierarchy. You can use reprepro to maintain an 'offline' repository too.

I understand how to manage an Offline Repository, but how do you manage to point it online? Also, does it require simply a webserver, or a VPS/Dedicated Server?

So what you mean is just move the offline directory to an online webserver, and just have the repository info pointing there? For example, "example.com/repository"
