I use this setup. I manage 10-15 WPKG ''server'', all recipe (packages) base are kept in sync using csync2, while profile and hosts setup are local. Every installation have a different client config file (i use wpkg client, so settings.xml) that point to the right software repository, that i keep in sync with unison. -- dott.
