Hi,
Try this. Use the directions from servers.linux.com for setting up a
repository. Do the part for the "base" without a change.
For updates we make a change.
After you have updated your repository with the "yum update" command,
the standard location for the updates is
/var/cache/yum/updates-released/packages
Make a link between the packages and the repository location for the
updates.
ln -s /var/cache/yum/updates-released/packages
/var/www/html/yum/Fedora/Core/2/updates
Now, from a client machine, run "yum update" referencing the repository.
Works nicely.
Pete.
