Yum over LAN?
I would also like to allow the repo to be operated by other computers over lan.
I guess there is a way to mount remote file systems and use it as a local media. But I thought that the httpd option would be better.
I however manaed to get it working by replicating the directory structure of the internet based repos and copying the DVD into it. Also, when I tried to run createrepo, the resultane repodata did not support grouping of the packages in the "Add Remove Software". So I had to use the DVD repodata as it was and it worked.
PS - I copied the entire DVD and *not* only the Fedora or RPMS directory
