[Centos] How to make a mirror of CentOS sites?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



This is how we are doing it here. I setup an rsync job to sync the files
from one of the Centos mirrors to our local server, told apache to serve
up that directory, and fashioned a yum.conf which pointed at that URL.
This way we are able to track updates, but freeze the repository to do a
site-wide rollout over the course of a few weeks without worrying about
untested packages sneaking in. 

I'm happy to share our script and/or config if you want more details.

Since up2date now supports apt and yum repos, and Current handles none
of the client management options of up2date yet (or so it appears
skimming the docs), I'd have to ask why?  A yum repo can do the same job
with a lot less setup.
