I just have the RPMS for core and updates. nothing from development or testing. I don't need them or play with them. I'm just sticking to whats stable. The selling point to me on yam is that it creates yum and apt headers made a mirror of my chosen repos without too much of a headache. In minutes (well days 20kb/s down) I had a working mirror to update my network. With the 20kb/s down its advantages to dload once, update many. I configured yum.conf to point to my yam folders and thats it. I run yam -uxg to and it updates everything and recreates the headers. You can set this in a cron also ;) Mike Ramirez -- Mike Ramirez <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
