# cd /etc/yum.repo.d/
# wget http://10.64.23.27/pub/Linux/Fedora/repo/local-base.repo
# wget http://10.64.23.27/pub/Linux/Fedora/repo/local-updates.repo

What is this
Well for installing software in Linux system, you need to have a Internet connection and package manager will download packages from mirrors which are located on Internet. This is a slow process. generally every Universities has Local Repo of Linux Disto. We have made a Local repo for Fedora 8, so that that process of updates and installation of softwares will be very fast.
