Okay, but my whole problem is that the systems on this network don't have
internet connectivity, so I have to replicate the F18 mirror locally. Will
this work using a local path instead of rsync just as well? I'll pull the
beta 2.4.0 and try that, though, it'll just take a little time to move it
across.
