>> Hmm... can you do this using file:// urls to do without the web server? << Yes. That option and others are well described in the (unfinished) yum howto at: http://www.phy.duke.edu/~rgb/General/yum_HOWTO/yum_HOWTO/yum_HOWTO.html#toc1 From it I learned enough to set up my own repositories and edit yum.conf to good effect. Lurking on this list has also taught me a lot. best, Cliff Kent
