Not mirror. Creating a personnal one, for internal (LAN) tests and use. If I wanted to mirror one, I would just use rsync or another tool. Yum embeds a tool to generate the metadata files (the equivalent of dpkg-scanpackages to generate Packages.gz). That one is the one I want. It's a sensitive server, without any developping tool, so there is no way to "./configure; make; make install" on it. Well, no problem, I am going to create a package for it. It will take a while, but, I will learn :-) -- Administration & Formation à l'administration de serveurs dédiés: http://www.google.fr/search?q=aspo+infogerance+serveur
