We use Archiva and have a similar mechanism where we want the local
repo to take precedence over the remote repo's, but hit the remote
system if it can't find what it needs locally.  Here's our working
ivysettings.xml

<ivysettings>
        <properties file="${ivy.settings.dir}/ivy.properties"
override="false" />
        <settings defaultResolver="main" circularDependencyStrategy="warn" />

        <resolvers>
                <chain name="archiva">
                        <ibiblio name="archiva-releases"
m2compatible="true" usepoms="true"

root="${ivy.repository.host}/${ivy.repository.releases}"
                                checkmodified="true" changingPattern=".*" />
                        <ibiblio name="archiva-snapshots" m2compatible="true"
                                usepoms="true"
root="${ivy.repository.host}/${ivy.repository.snapshots}"
                                checkmodified="true" changingPattern=".*" />
                        <ibiblio name="archiva-thirdparty" m2compatible="true"
                                usepoms="true"
root="${ivy.repository.host}/${ivy.repository.thirdparty}" />
                </chain>
                <filesystem name="local" checkmodified="true"
                        changingPattern=".*" m2compatible="false">
                        <artifact
pattern="${ivy.local.default.root}/${ivy.default.artifact.pattern}" />
                        <ivy
pattern="${ivy.local.default.root}/${ivy.default.ivy.pattern}" />
                </filesystem>
                <chain name="main" returnFirst="true">
                        <resolver ref="local" />
                        <resolver ref="archiva" />
                </chain>
        </resolvers>
</ivysettings>
