I’m not Sam, but I suspect he meant copy one of the configuration files
in /etc/yum.repos.d : I’d choose /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo .
In the updates section, comment out the mirrorlist= line with a # and
uncomment the baseurl= line. Then change the http:// to a file:/// , and
add the path to the updates.
He didn’t specify this, but you might or might not need to run
createrepo each time, depending on quite what you do rsync.
Hope this helps,
James.
