Hi Scott,

Thanks for the response.

The primary reason for our need to have the CentOS-2 mirrors is for
automated installation of packages if needed rather than getting the
latest package updates.

Also, as we have already put the system into production, it would be
best for us to make do with what's in there already.

Regards,
Matt
