oh - but a word of warning - I've had a couple of different users tell me that b/c of bandwidth constraints they have one machine that downloads the packages into its cache then they nfs export their cache dir out to their other linux boxes.
Yep I do this sort of thing on one network. a common share for the cache so all the fc4 machines that i admin cache packages to the same filesystem instead of having to regrab the same updates from the outside network. Some machines have updates-testing enabled.. some of them don't... but they all use the same cache tree.
