I would like to create a local distribution point for Fedora updates inside my network. I have replicated the official ftp site where updates rpms and other files are available and shared it as ftp site in our internal network. However running up2date -u from a newly installed PC I get the following: Red Hat Update Agent v4.1.16 Copyright (C) 1999-2002 Red Hat, Inc. Licensed under terms of the GPL. [root@sbiorcl06 rhn]# up2date -u Fetching package list for channel: fedora-core-1... Fetching ftp://sbits03.incasgroup/FedoraC1/i386/headers/header.info... Fetching package list for channel: updates-released... Fetching ftp://sbits03.incasgroup/FedoraC1/i386/headers/header.info... Fetching Obsoletes list for channel: fedora-core-1... Fetching Obsoletes list for channel: updates-released... Fetching rpm headers... Name Version Rel ---------------------------------------------------------- All packages are currently up to date The same result is obtained with the graphical interface. Why? How can I avoid downloading the same RPMs several times? Thanks Gianni Bragante
