Managing fedora installations behind firewall

[andreas palsson]

Hello.

Imagine a fairly large network, with from 50-100 workstations running Fedora.
Due to security, none of these machines have access to Internet.

Now to the question; how to keep all those machines up to date with the latest packages?

First, I imagine I have to set up a complete package repository.
Using the contents of the Fedora DVD should be sufficient?


Next, since the server is not connected to Internet either..
How do I keep the repository manually updated and synchronized with the official mirrors?


Last, how can I make a package which users can simply install to point their machines to update from the above mentioned server only, and remove the other install sources?


Thank you. :)
