mrepo 0.8.4

It takes care of setting up the ISO files, downloading the RPMs, configuring HTTP access and providing PXE/TFTP resources for remote network installations.
It was primarily intended for doing remote network installations of various distributions from a laptop without the need for CD media or floppies, but is equally suitable for an organisations centralized update server.
Doing a remote installation only requires a configured DHCP-server, the TFTP service and a Webserver configured with mrepo. Then boot your system using a PXE-enabled network card.
For updating your local systems, configure either Smart, Apt, Yum or up2date and point them to your local mrepo server.
Main features:
- Easy Yum-alike configuration
- Supports mirroring using FISH, FTP, HTTP, RSYNC, SFTP and RHN
- Supports Smart, Apt, Yum and up2date (as well as synaptic, yumgui and other derivatives)
- Can download and distribute updates from RHN channels
- Can work directly from ISO images (so you dont need extra diskspace to store ISOs or copy RPMs)
- Supports Red Hat, Fedora Core, Red Hat Enterprise (TaoLinux, CentOS) and Yellow Dog Linux out of the box
- Will probably work with other RPM based distributions (feedback needed, please mail me)
- Allows for remote network installation (using a PXE-enabled NIC on target systems)
- Support for 3rd party repositories and vendor packages
- Allows to maintain your own customized (corporate) repository
- Allow for chaining mrepo servers in large organisations with remote sites
- Can hardlink duplicate packages (to save precious diskspace)
Enhancements:
- The project was renamed from Yam to mrepo.
- Ready-to-use distribution configurations were improved.
- Proxy support was added to RHN support (rhnget).
- A new rhnget-cleanup directive allows the user to automatically clean up old packages.
- A Scientific Linux distribution configuration was added.
- Fixes were made to make RHN support work on CentOS.
