CentOS 5 to CentOS 5.8 YUM source

The source is http://mirrors.163.com, and it is also available at http://centos.ustc.edu.cn/,

Or http://mirrors.sohu.com/.

After analysis
CentOS 5 to CentOs 5.7 can use the same source, and the corresponding RHEL version can also be used
CentOS 5.8 uses another source, its software version is updated, and the corresponding RHEL version can also be used

CentOS 5 to CentOs 5.7 are as follows

CentOS-Base.repo

The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the

update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and

geographically close to the client.  You should use this for CentOS updates

unless you are manually picking other mirrors.

If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the

remarked out baseurl= line instead.
