My understanding was that a local repository would only be for use by the local machine, so I don't really see why you'd want a local RHEL4 yum repository on a RHEL5 machine? Have you looked at mrepo (http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/mrepo/)? You can add custom/additional packages to an mrepo repository and make them available to other machines via yum. It's very handy indeed. -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of GT4NE1 Sent: 17 January 2008 18:25 To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Setting up a local repository for RHEL 4 on a RHEL 5 box Is this possible. I found a KB article explaining how to install the createrepo package for a RHEL5 local repository, but will this work for any version of RHEL 4 since it doesn't use yum? http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-5-manual/en-US/RHEL51 0/Deployment_Guide/s1-yum-repo-setup.html Thanks, -GT -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
