It is much easier to populate 6.x and then just change symlink. In your suggestion, they would have to move all files from 6 to 6.x, then populate 6 with new files. during that last period, we would not be able to use yum. > > There is at least the advantage (for me) that I only have to rsync a > single tree (base). Also I think it's much clearer :-) I only sync 6 , not 6.x. There is no need if you anly want latest. 6 anyway points to latest 6.x, I do not see what your problem can bee. Actually, I use mrepo and ISO files for base repo, and rsync only updates, and other repo's. -- Ljubomir Ljubojevic (Love is in the Air) PL Computers Serbia, Europe Google is the Mother, Google is the Father, and traceroute is your trusty Spiderman...
