[expert] Intranet Mirroring of Mandrake Updates?

[Tony K.Olsen]

Hi Everyone,

I work in an intranet area where we do not have connectivity to any 
internet servers.  As such I am curious as to how to leverage the nice 
Mandrake update features available for use within this environment.

What I want to be able to do is to grab the latest .rpm files (same as 
those in use for the Update feature) that are available and burn them onto a 
CD-ROM which I will then copy onto a server somewhere on the intranet.  I 
then want my intranet Mandrake to be able to pick the appropriate "intranet 
location" and get the updates from there.  

Any ideas/suggestions/recommendations greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.  Cheers.

Re: [expert] 8.0 Final

Cool, hey if anyone tries it out, would someone tell me
if its worth upgrading to or not and why?

Thanks

On Thursday 19 April 2001 01:45 pm, so spoke Charles A Edwards:
 8.0 has been uploaded to many of the ftp mirrors, though not all as of 
yet.
 2 sites that do have it are:

 ftp://ftp.sunet.se/pub/Linux/distributions/mandrake/iso/Mandrake80

 ftp.free.fr/pub/Distributions_Linux/Mandrake-iso/i586

 All servers will be extremely busy.
 It might be more expedient to wait a day or 2 before attempting
 to download the ISOs and then to do so at an off peak time.

Hi Everyone,

Can anyone tell me why I can't get anonymous and email to work with 
these servers?

I have been trying to grab the two ISO images without any luck logging in 
using anonymous.

TIA.  Cheers.
