Quick answer to get you going.
Install yum-arch.
Setup your partial mirror in a directory /path/to/mirror.
Run yum-arch -v /path/to/mirror to regenerate the headers.
You must provide access to via http or https. (Is ftp an option? I don't know)
Put an entry in yum.conf on your clients that points to your local mirror.
e.g.
[org-local1]
name=Organization Repository #1
baseurl=https://mirror.example.com/path/to/repo/
run `yum list` and ensure your client sees the repo and headers from org-local1
You get the idea?

Subject: [Centos] Packages on demmand
Hi all,
I have four servers (one with redhat 7.3, two with CentOS 3.4 and one with CentOS 4 for testing). I would like to do a partial package mirror with os, updates, contrib branches and so on. Anybody knows if exists any tool for redhat based distros, like apt-proxy in debian world ( that donwloads packages on demmand), that supports this feature??
I see yam tool from dag repository, but it needs that do a full mirror ... and I don?t have as much disk space.
Thank you for your
