Dude, but it will install all RPMS downloaded from rawhide right? It will not just get and update the rpms I have installed on my system.
Look closely, he is using the -F option (freshen) which only updates the rpms that are currently installed.
Cheers...james
But thanks anyway.

Not really up2date, but I use the following script:
#!/bin/sh
export RSYNC_PASSWORD=XXXXXXXXXX
REMOTE_DIR="rsync://beta@ftp.beta.redhat.com/beta/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/i
386/RedHat/RPMS/" LOCAL_DIR=/home/RedHat/rawhide/RPMS/
mirror() { rsync -LvvH --delete --stats --progress --recursive --exclude=headers --size-only $REMOTE_DIR $LOCAL_DIR } mirror
rpm -Fvh /home/RedHat/rawhide/RPMS/*.rpm
...viewer discretion advised... You'll need to change the mirror and password, but you get the idea.... Works quite nicely for archiving updates as well....
