YUP only works with SLES10 GA and later. For SLES9, YaST had a built-in "YOU Server" tool that will turn a system into a local update source. For SLES10, the configuration file, /etc/sysconfig/yup, has a variable in there "YUP_SUBVERSIONS" that can specify multiple release levels, such as GA, SP1, or SP2. Edit that to have what you want to download. You only specify a top-level directory for YUP. YUP will automatically create any necessary subdirectories for the various products underneath that, such as SLES10, SLED10, s390, s390x, etc. Which architectures you want to mirror is specified by the YUP_ARCH variable in /etc/sysconfig/yup. Understand that if you start to mirror multiple release levels, such as GA, SP1, and SP2, you're going to be using up a _lot_ of disk space. I'm currently mirroring SLES10 SP1 and SP2 for i586, x86_64, and s390x, and SLED10 SP1 and SP2 for i586 and x86_64. That all by itself it taking up about 51GB. So, just watch out.
