OK, I can't afford the Red Hat Network, but I'd like to keep my system
as up-to-date as possible. I figured: "Hey! I'll rsync from
updates.redhat.com to a local directory and then I can rpm -Fvh when new
stuff comes down the pipe!"
Problem: I read the man page on rsync, but it didn't work. From the man
page:
rsync somehost.mydomain.com::
this would list all the anonymous rsync modules available
on the host somehost.mydomain.com. (See the following
section for more details.)
Running
rsync updates.redhat.com::
failed to connect to updates.redhat.com - Connection refused
Running
rsync updates.redhat.com6.2/en/os/::
gives me lots of (not very helpful) help information.
Can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong?
