[TriLUG] RH Update server -- Looking for volunteers

If I bring up a server on my network, with RedHat 7.2 (and all the
upgrades), can I get some volunteers to secure shell in and setup (or help
setup) an Update server?  Using "Current", a drop-in replacement server for
Red Hats' up2date utility (Thanks very much to Hunter).

I'm willing to open up the admin of the box to some volunteers in the hopes
of getting a RH update server that is usable by all of TriLUG.

I would just like to see some *good* documentation on how to set one up.
