If you are willing to use a web server to serve config files have a look at this: http://www.owlriver.com/support/yum/yumconf.php This allows you to do things like have a master configuration for your domain and add repositories based on for instance machine name. So what I have is a master config file for all machines in a domain and the ability to optionally cat extra lines onto the main config file for individual machines. The really slick thing is you can store all of your config files on the web server, which allows much better control than each file on a machine. Does this make sense to you?? Is something like this what you are looking for?? HTH, -- ......Tom Registered Linux User #14522 http://counter.li.org tdiehl@xxxxxxxxxxxx My current SpamTrap -------> mtd123@xxxxxxxxxxxx
