$ apt-cache show yam
Package: yam
Section: System Environment/Base
Maintainer: Dag Wieers <dag at wieers.com>
Filename: yam-0.3-1.1.fc2.dag.noarch.rpm
Description: Tool to create a local RPM repository from ISO files and
RPM packages
 Yam builds a local Apt/Yum RPM repository from local ISO files,
 downloaded updates and extra packages from 3rd party repositories.
  
 It can download all updates and extras automatically, creates
 the repository structure and meta-data, enables HTTP access to
 the repository and creates a directory-structure for PXE/TFTP.
  
 With yam, you can enable your laptop or a local server to provide
 updates for the whole network and provide the proper files to
 allow installations via the network.
  
 By default it works out of the box with:
  
        Fedora Core 1 and 2
        Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 and 3 (WS, ES, AS)
        TaoLinux 1
        CentOS 2.1 and 3
        Red Hat Linux 6.2, 7.3, 8.0 and 9

so I think all you need to to is
apt-get install yam
man yum
