One of the basic tenets of computers that I have held fast to is that computers do what they are told. My /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date file is telling it to use: serverURL[comment]=Remote server URLserverURL=http://xmlrpc.rhn.redhat.com/XMLRPCwhich is not an ssl connection. I know that it is using the proxy because when I run yum update I have another console open running: watch "netstat -a|grep tcp" and I can see it going out to the proxy. Is there another file that yum sources for directives? Thanks for the reply. Regards, Marshall
Yum looks in /etc/yum.conf and /etc/yum.repos.d. If you've not set up any extra yum repositories then /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date tells it where to connect for the RHN service.
You could strace the process to get more info about what it is doing. Hugh
