RHN is a plugin for Yum. Some of the configuration lives in what Yum would think is the correct location: /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/rhnplugin.conf
However, it appears that a lot of the configuration still lives in the old location for up2date: /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date I assume that eventually someone will notice and combine the config files - until then you have to do what Daniel suggests in order to have RHN operatins go via a proxy. What you initially tried will work for "normal" yum repos. -- Sam > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:rhelv5-list- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Zavodsky, Daniel (GE Money) > Sent: 04 April 2008 13:20 > To: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (Tikanga) discussion mailing-list > Subject: RE: [rhelv5-list] yum to xmlrpc.rhn.redhat.com over proxy > > Hello, > Try putting this into /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date: > > httpProxy=x.x.x.x:8080 > > > It works for https too. > > > Regards, > Daniel > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Simon Jolle > Sent: Friday, April 04, 2008 2:06 PM > To: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (Tikanga) discussion mailing-list > Subject: [rhelv5-list] yum to xmlrpc.rhn.redhat.com over proxy > > Hi Red Hat users > > According man yum.conf I added > > # cat /etc/yum.conf > [...] > proxy=https://x.x.x.x:8080 > [...] > > Yum is timing-out and on proxy server i see no request from this > source. > > Manually with "wget" and environment variable there is no problem > connecting to RHN. > # echo $https_proxy > https://x.x.x.x:8080 > > cheers > Simon > -- > XMPP: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > _______________________________________________ > rhelv5-list mailing list > [email protected] > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list > > > > _______________________________________________ > rhelv5-list mailing list > [email protected] > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
