This snippet works for me:

---------
[rhlas-2.1-ia64]
name = Red Hat Linux 2.1AS ia64
parent_channel =
arch = ia64
os_release = 2.1AS
description = Red Hat Linux Advanced Server 2.1AS
srpm_check = 0

rpm_dirs = /var/ftp/pub/dists/redhat/2.1AS/os/ia64/RedHat/RPMS
                /var/ftp/pub/dists/redhat/2.1AS/updates/os/ia64
                /var/ftp/pub/dists/redhat/2.1AS/updates/os/noarch
                /var/ftp/pub/dists/redhat/2.1AS/extras/ia64
                /var/ftp/pub/dists/redhat/2.1AS/extras/noarch

src_dirs = /var/ftp/pub/dists/redhat/2.1AS/os/ia64/SRPMS
                /var/ftp/pub/dists/redhat/2.1AS/updates/os/SRPMS
                /var/ftp/pub/dists/redhat/2.1AS/extras/SRPMS
------------

obviously, "extras" and "updates" have to filled by hand, so you should get
by with

rpm_dirs = /var/ftp/pub/dists/redhat/2.1AS/os/ia64/RedHat/RPMS
src_dirs = /var/ftp/pub/dists/redhat/2.1AS/os/ia64/SRPMS

and you'll have to replace the ia64 with i386 if that's your platform.

Good luck!
