Hi, Try this. Use the directions from servers.linux.com for setting up a repository. Do the part for the "base" without a change. For updates we make a change. After you have updated your repository with the "yum update" command, the standard location for the updates is /var/cache/yum/updates-released/packages Make a link between the packages and the repository location for the updates. ln -s /var/cache/yum/updates-released/packages /var/www/html/yum/Fedora/Core/2/updates Now, from a client machine, run "yum update" referencing the repository. Works nicely. Pete.
