In addition to the two ways already mentioned, you have both the

Call me crazy but I want to have my cake and eat it, too.
Ideally one should be able to use the RHN front end interface to tell
50 machines to all grab the same package. Then that package should be
fetched from a local repository.
From what I've seen of yum & current so far, it seems like you lose the
nice front end interface in order to gain a local repository.
