[AusNOG] preferencing Own Hosted Mirror Repo's

[Joseph Goldman]

This is more of a server question so you may not get great answers, but a few hacks that might work would be to add static DNS records from the mirror list to your recursors, to always push to your repo server (very messy) , or as you said change the repo configuration on each server. I believe this is where management tools like puppet come in handy.
