Hi everyone.

As you know, every machine with Fedora Core 6 can use the command 'yum' either 
to update the system or install packets on line. We tried to install the 
packets related with Xen via yum and we had not success to do it. The company's 
machines go out to Internet through Squid which authenticate the users before 
allow access to internet. In a beginning we thought that the problem was that 
yum was not authenticating with proxy and therefore it can't download the 
packets from Internet, so we edited the file /etc/yum.conf and added the next 
lines:

proxy=10.200.0.48:8081
proxy_username=ehernandez
proxy_password=**********

Once we did the previous, we tried to download the packets again and we 
obtained the next error:

Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Options Error: Error parsing '10.200.0.48:8081': URL must be http, ftp or https 
not "10.200.0.48"

What must I do so that yum can perform correctly and it can download packets 
from Internet via Squid?
Do I need to perform any configuration on Squid so that I can download packets 
via 'yum'?

If you have some documentation or some opinion to resolve this problem I'll be 
grateful for it.

Regards.
