Shortest answer: http://lists.baseurl.org/mailman/listinfo/yum Shorter answer: Yum will attempt to obtain files from whatever repository you tell it to use. If you want to download files from an RHEL 5 repo, all you you need to do is configure said repo and tell Yum to use it. As an addendum, you might be particularly interested in "yumdownloader", which is a tool for downloading packages (including source RPMs) without actually installing them. -- Daniel Maher <dma + 389users AT witbe DOT net> -- 389 users mailing list 389-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users
