We have a rsync'ed copy of the centos distro. We want to point our local machines at that, what is our next step?
Hi, Jason.
cd /etc/yum.repos.d
I'd make a backup of the original CentOS-Base.repo:
cp CentOS-Base.repo CentOS.Base.repo.org
Open CentOS-Base.repo in a text editor, vim, emacs, whatever.
Comment out all the mirrorlist's.
# mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/blah-blah-blah
Make sure all the baseurl's reflects your internal repo and are not commented out.
baseurl=http//your_internal_repo/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/
This will be my second try after trying to find a less invasive method like proxying.
Right now when a machine pulls up mirrorlist.centos.org it will point to an internal system, whose cgi behaves as such (expecting a scale issue here, vlan based load...).
You should be ok to use yum then, so long as your paths are all good. This is how I do it, anyways. Other comments or procedures are more than welcome.
Regards, Max
