Is there an approved procedure for setting up a local yum repository which has all the CentOS-3 patches (3.1 & 3.3)? I don't want to have 2 directories, just a single directory which has all the patches I need. I though the 3.3 directory would have these included but it seems not. If I manually upgrade to centos-release-3.3 (before installing all the 3.1 patches) then I will not get any outstanding patches from 3.1, which might be a problem.
As a side issue, is there any reasons for anyone not to upgrade to 3.3? and is running 3.1 still secure?
John.
