if I have a local centos yum mirror, whats the best way of adjusting the yum.repos.d/*.repo files to use this? If I simply edit CentOS-Base.repo there stands a chance that a yum update could conflict with my changes.
The Fedora mirror system has a nice feature:
If you run a local fedora mirror you can put a netblock on the Fedora mirror management page. Any request for a mirror site from this netblock then gets directed to the local mirror only.
In this way you access the local mirror without changing anything in /etc/yum.conf.d
It could be nice to have this for CentOS as well...
