I believe the currently in vogue tool is reprepro. Here is a somewhat dated but still reasonable howto for using it. http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/286 I am using it for my own personal archive to create a signed repository. I used to use other different tools including ftparchive but I have since migrated to reprepro and it works well for me. Bob
