Getting urpmi to work through an http proxy is rather easy, once you know how to do it :) This only works using wget, not curl.
either edit the /etc/wgetrc file or create a $HOME/.wgetrc file and put the following lines in it: http_proxy = proxyaddress:port use_proxy = on proxy_user = userid proxy_passwd = passwd This will allow wget to do http transfers through an authenticating http proxy server. It does not work with rpmdrake or grpmi for some reason, but does work fine with urpmi Scott On Fri, 2002-03-08 at 07:45, David Barker wrote: > Can I use urpmi through http proxies yet?
