HowTo cache RH5 updates locally??


I have a RedHat5 server, and a legal purchased support license for it. I want to be able to download all of the RH5 update packages from Redhat, and cache them locally. (I have already created my own local repo of the base packages from CD.) I don't understand how to do this. I have read up on yum, yum.conf and yum plugins, and I have even installed yum-utils and the plugin called download only. I can't seem to get things functioning the way I want. First is the download only plugin, and yum untils the right way to go with this? Any help, or even a pointer to a URL with details on this would be greatly appreciated.
John
