Re: [CentOS] Best way to mirror CentOS locally

Kick off an rsync from your closest fast mirror, wait for this to complete, then setup a nightly cron job to keep in sync with this mirror. Something like...

rsync -Pptrl --delete rsync://rsync.sunsite.org.uk/sites/msync.centos.org/CentOS/4/ /local_repo/CentOS/4/

Would mirror the whole CentOS 4 tree to /local_repo/CentOS/4/ on the system the sync was run on. You can then point the local yum configs to

file:/local_repo/CentOS/4/

Run a webserver/ftpserver that can access /local_repo/CentOS/4/ to make the updates available to other clients.

Will.
