I'd recommend the mirror perl app: http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/MByName.html Either mirror-2.9-12 or mirror-2.9-2.2.0 should do the trick ... I'd probably go with 2.9-12 if your running RedHat 9 or lower. Mirror supports push and pull ftp data exchanging and you can schedule it to run by adding a line in the crontab, like so: 00 23 * * 1-5 root mirror <dir where config file is located>/data.mirror.cfg Provided documentation will guide you in setting up a config file. Good luck.
