Looking for a little more info...
When there are updates available on your repo, and you've set up your
/etc/yum.repos/*.repo files to point to the appropriate locations, couldn't you
just run the command "/usr/bin/yum -y update" in a promise? - Any updates that
are available will be downloaded and installed.
Or, am I missing something about what you need?
