I just installed CentOS 4 on a new server and now I'm looking for
updates that have been released. I like to keep a local mirror of all
the updates so I can apply them to other machines easier/faster (this of
course assuming I end up installing CentOS on more servers.) So, where
are those updates mirrored?
With RH/FC, I can hit any mirror and rsync the updates folders. Is
there an equivalent with CentOS?
