I didn't actually understand Harish's question until I saw Joseph's
response :)

Anyway, yes, you can have multiple yumgroups.xml files, I think yum will
just suck them all up and treat it as one big file...  And if you have
them in different repositories (ie. client1 only sees 'dir1' and client2
only sees 'dir2', then you could have a yumgroups.xml in dir1 which
would only be used by client1 (not seen by client2).
