Hello John,
make sure you have internet connection ( hehe ).. and try this one on the computer you want to update via yum.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# HTTP_PROXY="http://ip.address.of.the.proxy:3128 or whatever is your proxy port"
if your proxy needs authentication:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# HTTP_PROXY="http://ip.address.of.the.proxy:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:3128 or whatever is your proxy port"
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]#export HTTP_PROXY
after exporting fire up your yum update..
though this is not permanent settings.. if you want it to be I think you have to append you ( user ) .bash_profile.. or much better you can append directly yum.conf if you dont want to so the exporting thing about
like this: yum.conf
proxy with password:
proxy="http://proxyip:port"
proxy_username="username"
proxy_password="password"
and without
proxy=http://proxyip:port/
proxy_username=
proxy_password=
hope that helps.
Regards,
Ryan
