Kick off an rsync from your closest fast mirror, wait for this to complete, then setup a nightly cron job to keep in sync with this mirror. Something like... rsync -Pptrl --delete rsync://rsync.sunsite.org.uk/sites/msync.centos.org/CentOS/4/ /local_repo/CentOS/4/ Would mirror the whole CentOS 4 tree to /local_repo/CentOS/4/ on the system the sync was run on. You can then point the local yum configs to file:/local_repo/CentOS/4/ Run a webserver/ftpserver that can access /local_repo/CentOS/4/ to make the updates available to other clients. Will.
