If so, any instructions/steps for this deployment? in theory you could go either way... mirroring repos inside your firewall if policy dictates. i haven't done this with rsyslog, but puppet (as one example) lets you rsync from the same address so it's very easy. i don't see 22/873 open on rpms.adiscon, but you could always do it with wget -m or similar. you'll want to do is mirror the entire repo vs single package, so you have all the correct dependencies/versions in one place. _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
