i already did this (for el6 - see below) .. i have the rpms, but at this moment would be for me too time consuming to learn how to make a repo
what do you need to learn?
- yum install createrepo
- createrepo /path/to/your/existing/rpms/
- let point any httpd/ftpd server point to /path/to/your/rpms/
- copy a .repo-file from /etc/yum.repos.d/ and modify it for your needs
this does not take longer than 10 minutes at all
thanks a lot!!! easier than i thought!

You can also setup a "mrepo" daemon (rpm is in repoforge repository). It is not hard to setup, and you can have as many separate repositories or mirrors of existing repositories as you like. I maintain 20+repositories (for CentOS 5.x and 6.x, for both i386 and x86_64: base/os, updates, extra, centosplus, epel, repoforge, puias, rpm-fussion, remi, ........, my own repositories for manually downloaded packages, what I have compiled, etc ). I use it so I can update and install my systems MUCH faster (local LAN speed) and even if my internet link is down.
