I just installed CentOS 4 on a new server and now I'm looking for updates that have been released. I like to keep a local mirror of all the updates so I can apply them to other machines easier/faster (this of course assuming I end up installing CentOS on more servers.) So, where are those updates mirrored?
With RH/FC, I can hit any mirror and rsync the updates folders. Is there an equivalent with CentOS?

Yes. Look around your local mirror.

Just google for centos mirrors
http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=13
gives you a large selection of mirrors, with idication which protocols are available for each of them (i.e. http, ftp, rsync).

Thanks guys! Rsync is happily running.
