Re: Setting up yum repository

Paul:

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, I want to set up local copy of the [core] repository.
I will try this out. I am guessing I have to set the file://path/to/directory in yum.conf file?
Also, I have to do yum-update after the change, correct? Also, I do not want yum to be using fedora's servers to get the packages.

Are you talking about a repository of your own packages, or just a local
copy of the [core] repository (i.e. what's on the install media)?

If you have the DVD ISO, it already contains the repository metadata,
which you can use over NFS by exporting the loopback-mounted DVD ISO and
having clients use a baseurl of:

file:///path/to/directory

where /path/to/directory is the path to the directory containing the
"repodata" directory on the ISO.
