Hi,

I've tried truss.  I'm still seeing the transaction with the ftp server
and, again, it stop after the PASV is activated.  There is no sign of a
local file opened yet which seems a little bit strange as I would expect
that rpm prepare the output file before starting to download the actual
file.

As I'm still unable to figure where rpm is trying to write the downloaded
file, does anybody can give me info on this subject?  Which environment
variable is used to figure that and which directory is the default one (if
nothing is configured in any config file or variable)?

I'll see if I can put the machine directly on the net for a few minutes
and do a test without any firewall in between.  I'll keep you posted.

Thank you.


Etienne

IPFilter and FTP have always been an horror to me (together, IPFilter is
great). But then, when it works with wget and curl, it should probably
also work with rpm.

Ummm,... "truss" ? :)
