I just download it all to my hard drive and make my local filesystem the yum mirror using the file:///local/yum/mirror syntax. That way I can "trickle" down the updates at whatever speed the mirrors will send it and I run yum -y upgrade on whichever software is causing the most pain. IE, I avoid doing a yum -y upgrade enmasse to avoid causing "more" problems instead of less. Cheers =) -- WC -Sx- Jones | http://ccsh.us/ | Open Source Consulting
