Dear Troy,

    Persons using SL in our Institute has a problem that they can not 
update their SL version using package updater (pup) due to firewall 
restrictions.  But we can download the necessary files from 
ftp.scientificlinux.org and keep it available to the users.  Kindly tell 
me how to setup the mirror which will be used only for updates of 
SL5.x.  We want to keep ONLY those files which are needed for updating  
SL5.x systems and not the whole set of directories and files.  Also 
please indicate how to instruct pup to use this repository for updating SL.

With Thanks and Regards,
