Thanks Mark. > Copy all packages that you want to have in > your repository into one directory Can I just copy only the Apache, OpenSSH & ISC Bind packages & what's the filenames of those packages that I need to copy? Ideally don't want to upgrade the RHEL OS if possible. Can tell me how to extract only the required packages from the RHEL 5.10 iso image? Also, what's the exact command to upgrade from this repository?
