and I'm wondering whether I also need to create:
/var/www/html/centos/5/os/i386 /var/www/html/centos/5/updates/i386 /var/www/html/centos/5/os/x86_64 /var/www/html/centos/5/updates/x86_64
If you rsync the tree, those are created as symlinks to the current CentOS version (so at the moment it is linked to 5.2, it will get linked to 5.3 when that comes out). Your machines should hit the "/5/" version so that updates to 5.x happen "automagically".
By the way: If you aren't going to offer a public mirror, you have hit the wrong list - this should go to centos@centos.org. This list is for people offering public mirrors.
