Hindle,

You can download the iso images to a central ftp server and put the
rpm's there in an anonymous ftp-tree, and update with:

rpm -Uvhftp://servername/ftp-directoryname/*.rpm

Other posibility is the put the iso images on a nfs share and use:

mount nfs:/iso-dir /mountpoint-for-iso-share
redhat-config-packages --iso-dir=/mountpoint-for-iso-share
umount /mountpoint-for-iso-share

Good luck,

Ok Thanks, I have one last question, when you say the ISO image, is it
the ISO image of the update8 ONLY or it's the ISO of the RedhatUpdate8
installation (4 ISO)

Thanks!
