[Yum] setting up repos for RHAS

[Brian Lalor]

Good afternoon, all.  I'm trying to set up a local repository for use with a 
small cluster of Red Hat Advanced Server machines.  Since the binary RPMs are 
only available via up2date/the RHN, I've used my single RHN on one of the 
machines and configured up2date to only download the packages and not install 
them.  I'm then sucking the downloaded updates into my yum repository and 
running yum-arch in the directory containing the updates.  I've got separate 
base and updates repositories; the base comes from the CDs.

The problem I've got is that I'm not seeing some of the packages that are in 
the repository via "yum list".  In particular, the updated kernel-enterprise 
packages aren't visible (kernel-enterprise is for machines with greater than 
4G of RAM).  After running yum-arch for both repositories, I see the following 
files:
	./base/kernel-enterprise-2.4.9-e.3.i686.rpm
	./base/headers/kernel-enterprise-0-2.4.9-e.3.i686.hdr
	./updates/headers/kernel-enterprise-0-2.4.9-e.25.i686.hdr
	./updates/kernel-enterprise-2.4.9-e.25.i686.rpm

I don't know where that -0- comes from between the name and the version for 
the header filenames...

"yum list kernel*"  doesn't show the kernel-enterprise.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
B
