Use up2date with the -d flag. Then copy those over to your NFS share.
Some problems with this approach:
1) Must be run from the RHEL system.
2) up2date will only download RPMs installed on that system.
3) The datestamp on the RPM is changed to the download date.
I like to maintain archives of all available RPMs for the version/distribution.
I suppose one could grab the source for up2date and hack at it to get the desired results. Although spidering RHN sounds like more fun.
Any other thoughts?
