I have setup a local patch server (that acts patch proxy and patch depot). Following is the /etc/pca.conf xrefdir=/pcarepo patchdir=/pcarepo user=xxxx passwd=xxxxx wgetproxy=http://gmdvproxy.acml.com:8080 debug=0 On the client side, I have following /etc/pca.conf file patchdir=/var/pca xrefdir=/var/pca #patchurl=http://pca.acml.com/Patches patchurl=http://pca.acml.com/cgi-bin/pca-proxy.cgi? xrefurl=http://pca.acml.com/cgi-bin/pca-proxy.cgi? The above setup seem to work very well for me. On the client side, if I am applying a patch, if it isn't in local patch server, then I see that on local patch server wget is executed, that patch is downloaded and eventually client gets it. This is great. My question is when is /etc/pca-proxy.conf needed ? Because, when I create a pca-proxy.conf on the client side & patch server side (with correct permissions). The pca download and install fails. Let me know.
