What you *can* do is to edit the /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates.repo file and comment out any existing baseurl= and mirrorlist= lines and then add a line: baseurl=http://your.server/path/to/repo/updates/$releasever/$basearch This will make yum on that machine access *only* your server. If your server is not always available, you can do: baseurl=http://your.server/path/to/repo/updates/$releasever/$basearch http://other.mirror/path/to/repo/updates/$releasever/$basearch http://another.mirror/path/to/repo/updates/$releasever/$basearch failovermethod=priority This will cause yum to try each of the listed servers in turn, but it will stop at the first one that responds with valid data. So the best thing to do is to resync your mirror regularly so that it's always as up to date as possible. Paul. -- Paul Howarth <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
