Hello, I try to be a good Netizen by running my own yum updates repository for the 100+ servers I manage. For the most part, it works properly: I just rsync one of the official yum repository mirrors and point all of my machines to my local server. However, every once in a while, I'll get the following error on a machine I'm trying to update: http://update/yum/Fedora/Extras/4/i386/repodata/primary.xml.gz: [Errno -1] Metadata file does not match checksum ("update" is my local update server). This usually only happens with the Extras repository. I've tried removing this file and rsyc'ing against a couple different yum repositories, but I still get this error. Is there a "best practices" methodology I should be following in order to run my own yum mirror? I'm assuming that there is a special case when dealing with this metadata file and that I probably can't rely on a simple rsync. Thanks, Tony -- A sadist is a masochist who follows the Golden Rule.
