It worked, thanks Shawn.. I have a followup question to my earlier post. kindly read further..
<<Question>> While using 'pkg' client, how do I exclude certain authorities from passing through the proxy? I'm currently hosting the depot server on my dev box (intranet). In addition, I can connect to internet via a proxy. These are my currently set of authorities: bash-3.2# pkg authority AUTHORITY URL opensolaris.org (preferred) http://pkg.opensolaris.org/ localstbrepo http://opensolaris2.chn99/release/ After correcting the 'httpd.conf' as Shawn suggested, the pkg client communication to my depot server seemed working fine. However, my communicaton with authorities that are on internet would fail.. bash-3.2# pkg refresh bash-3.2# pkg authority AUTHORITY URL opensolaris.org (preferred) http://pkg.opensolaris.org/ localstbrepo http://opensolaris2.chn99/release/ bash-3.2# pkg refresh pkg: 1/2 catalogs successfully updated: Could not retrieve catalog from 'opensolaris.org' URLError, reason: (8, 'node name or service name not known') bash-3.2# Therefore, I tried setting up the 'http_proxy' variable on my env to access internet and 'pkg refresh' for 'pkg.opensolaris.org' would succeed. But, in this case, since all the traffic isbeing passed through the proxy, 'pkg refresh' to my local depot server would fail: bash-3.2# pkg refresh pkg: 1/2 catalogs successfully updated: Transfer from 'localstbrepo' timed out: 504 - Gateway Timeout. (happened 4 times) Hence my request for information on excluding certain domain/URL in http_proxy. Request you to kindly provide your inputs here. thanks, Ram On Sat, Feb 28, 2009 at 1:38 AM, Shawn Walker <[email protected]>wrote: > ramanujan oops wrote: > >> I tried setting up a reverse proxy setup on my local box and I was >> checking if I was able to start a depot server with proxy-base. >> However, even after starting it with shifted base, pkg refresh/pkg >> send would fail.
