It's been such a long time, even I have to read the docs to look up the configuration :)

It should work by setting xrefurl and patchurl in the secondary PCA proxy's pca-proxy.conf to point at the primary PCA proxy, like this:

 # Get everything from the proxy
 patchurl=http://www.networkA.org:8888/patches/pca-proxy.cgi
 xrefurl=http://www.networkA.org:8888/patches/pca-proxy.cgi

(actual URLs, ports and paths of course depend on your setup - basically the same setup you use on the clients in networkA).

Clients in networkB will access the proxy in networkB, which contacts the PCA proxy in networkA, which gets the patches from Oracle.

        In my environment I have networks separated by firewalls.  In network A

        successfully set up a PCA Patch server via proxy and all hosts on

        update via PCA.  In network B I have no access to a proxy server, but my
        network
        team did open port 8888 through the firewall for a single host - is
        there a way
        to set up the single host on network B to relay requests to the PCA
        Patch server
        in network A?


    Not sure if I understand your firewall setup correctly, but one solution
    might be to build a cascade of PCA proxy servers. You'd configure the one in
    network B to access the one in network A.
