dns round robin is not very helpful for me doing firewall rules. How would you solve this yum and firewall thing?

I think your best bet would be either
- take a host you're more comfortable with having http access to the
world, change it to run squid, perhaps putting limit rules in squid to only allow http requests to download.centos.org (or whatever), then point your more secured host to this machine as your proxy server. 2) find a likewise host that you can allow pretty much any outbout http traffic on that also has a pretty good amount of disk space free and usable, then use it to pull in a local mirror of the cent archives. and over ride DNS results with local /etc/host rules for dns results.
If I understood what you said I would rephrase it with less words like
1) set up a proxy and filter the host: header 2) do a local mirror
Thanks
