Half have a /pub, half just start with /redhat, some have /pub/mirrors/redhat, some have /linux/redhat/linux, etc.. The way I was structuring my system, is so that mirror folks can chose their own top dir to rsync against, and append their own dirs leading up to that top dir. After that top dir of their choice, then everything should be the same. > I wouldnt worry about the symlink to SRPMS but would put in the RPMS > dir then break down to archs for example > > download.fedoralegacy.org/pub/fedoralegacy/7.3/RPMS/i386/legacy-addons > download.fedoralegacy.org/pub/fedoralegacy/7.3/RPMS/ppc/legacy-addons > download.fedoralegacy.org/pub/fedoralegacy/7.3/SRPMS/legacy-addons That breaks metadata structure. Why would you have a seperate update conf line for the SRPMS? SRPMS and RPMS for the given section should exist within the same tree, hence the SRPM link back. That way, one could run say yum-arch (replace this with the new metadata tool) at /redhat/7.3/i386/updates/ and it will gather all the rpms in RPMS/ as well as the srpms in SRPMS/. This makes each "base|updates|updates-testing|legacy-addons" a complete unit for a update tool config line. - -- Jesse Keating RHCE MCSE (http://geek.j2solutions.net) Fedora Legacy Team (http://www.fedora.us/wiki/FedoraLegacy) Mondo DevTeam (www.mondorescue.org) GPG Public Key (http://geek.j2solutions.net/jkeating.j2solutions.pub) Was I helpful?
