Ned, So you are saying that I should point my yum clients to the 5/updates/i386 folder for updates correct? No matter if they are 5 5.1 5.2? Not trying to be redundant...Just want to make sure that I'm understanding this correct before I actually give it a go.
Yes, and see Akemi's earlier reply about symlinks for 5 -> 5.x
Not yes, but no. Updates is always rebased to the latest point release, so you cannot point 5.1 clients to 5.2 updates.
I think Ned's response is correct. It is "Yes" if the OP sees "Akemi's reply". In other words, yum repo has the 5 -> 5.x symlink and under 5.x there are both "os" and "updates". Clients are supposed to point to "5" regardless of whether they are 5 or 5.1 or 5.2.
