The standard CentOS-Base.repo points to: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/ (and updates, extras, addons, etc. for the other repos) The $releasever is tied to the package centos-release ... but it always stays at 3 for CentOS-3.x and 4 for CentOS-4.x We always will point <http://mirror.centos.org/centos/3/> or <http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/> to the latest tree for 3.x or 4.x so that you do not have to do anything, other than use a default centos update method {yum,up2date,apt}, and do and update ... then you have all the latest updates. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
