Hi there !
A client has a number of machines on their internal LAN, all running FC4.
To keep them all up2date takes quite a lot time and bandwidth because
even at 512M broadband speeds the stuff has to be downloaded for all
the machines on the network. Could I set them up with their firewall
machine holding a mirror of the Fedora Core and Extras repositories and
have all the network machines point to the firewall for repositories ?
Any pointers to doing this and gotchas to beware of would be welcome ...
Try:

For FC3 or later, you'd be editing .repo files from /etc/yum.repos.d
rather than /etc/yum.conf but the basic procedure is as described there.
