I don't think Yum can do this and it probably won't get added as a feature. What about adding routes to the repositories via the gateway for the alternate link? For example: ip route add repo.ip.addr via alt.gw.ip where repo.ip.addr is the IP of the repository and alt.gw.ip is the gateway for the network on eth0:1. Do this for each repository you use. Menno
