Sure. It is configurable to point to any yum archives you want. So I can
download for one machine and point my others at it inside my network. It
has much of the upgrade flexibility as apt-get does while working with
standard RedHat upgrades as well as third-party upgrades. It is command
line only (only for the moment, I'm sure) so it is easily stuck in a
cron task or run remotely through an ssh shell.
