gentoo http-replicator exception

Hello,

I am having difficulties setting up an http-replicator on a gentoo box for binary portage caching purposes. The setup seems trivial, however when accessed from a client I get the following exception:

xen ~ # emerge -pg vim

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

I am having suspicions about the server config, where you setup the alias to the precompiled portage such as:

## Local dir to serve clients. Great for serving binary packages
## See PKDIR and PORTAGE_BINHOST settings in 'man make.conf'
## --alias /path/to/serve:location will make /path/to/serve
## browsable at http://http-replicator.com

ort/location
DAEMON_OPTS="$DAEMON_OPTS --alias /usr/portage/packages/All:All"

Does anyone have any clues about this? What do they mean in the config of the replicator - 'browsable at http://.... ?

Thanks!
