update sources

If you mean the ones for Mandrake Update, etc. then in GUI you can do it from CONFIGURATION--PACKAGING--SOFTWARE SOURCES MANAGER. Use the Easy URPMI site anon gave above to help you.

 

I keep several ftp sites in my list, and then all I have to do is disable/enable to setup the ones I want to use. (use the check boxes to disable/enable them)

 

If you REMOVE/DELETE the main update source, the next time you try Mandrake Update, it will ask to download a list of mirrors and ask you to choose one. That method works ok too. I just found it faster to have a few choices as I mentioned above.

 

From urpmi.removemedia and urpmi.addmedia you can do the same things. The man pages have the details...

 

Does that answer your question, or did I misunderstand it?
