Topic: Yum updating

[Alex Schaft]

Hi,

I've got two sme 6 boxes. Is it possible for one to pretend it's a repository after updating itself, so that the other boxes don't have to refetch updates from the web?

Yeah you could set this up.  After your main server downloads the files you could create a repository on that server and point your other servers that that repository.  Create an ibay with your yum files, then do a yum-arch /path_to_your_files/.  Modify your other servers' yum.conf to point to your server and they should download the files from there.

That's a high-level overview.  I did this a while back on some test servers and didn't have any issues.
