Mock is easy to use. You can install it with yum install mock. You
will want to set the packager and dist variables in
/etc/mock/centos-5-arch.cfg. As far as building SRPMS the command is
as simple as

For i386 on a x86_64 box
setarch i386 mock -r centos-5-i386.cfg
--resultdir=/home/yourhomedir/mock/ package.srpm

For x86_64
mock -r centos-5-x86_64.cfg --resultdir=/home/yourhomedir/mock/ package.srpm
