You just have to define an update source.  All the update mirrors have the 
same ../base/hdlist.cz format as the dist tree, so you can add it with

urpmi.addmedia updates --update ftp://path to source with ../base/hdlist.cz

The --update switch tells urpmi that this is the update source and then you 
can apply security updates with 

urpmi.update -a && urpmi --auto-select --update

This updates the local hdlists and then autoselects packages for installation 
based on what you have installed only from the update repository.  Have fun.
