You need to grab a copy of debmirror, which is just a Perl script, so it
should work under CentOS. I don't know where to get a version as a tarball --
I had an available VM running Ubuntu and just installed it there and NFS
mounted the mirror disk from the CentOS server. There is a config file for
debmirror to control where you mirror from and just what you mirror (versions,
arches, etc.). There is a man page and and example config file. You then run
debmirror from crontab (eg every day).
Unfortunately, the Debian flavor repositories are not structured to just be
rsync'ed like the CentOS repositories.
