If it'll work that way, ok. > >And if that doesn't make any sense to you, you've got a really whacked view of >what spacewalk is doing. It isn't clear to me - and I do *not* have time to read the code, I'm on a contract, and when my manager says install this and make it work, that's what I do. Also, from what you're saying, that's what I was *hoping* it would do. The paranoia was based on the idea that, as a fallback, if for some reason it couldn't get the package on *my* server, that it would pull it off the web. And if I couldn't tell my manager that, then your managers aren't paranoid enough. <g> mark > >* there are better ways (documented in bugzilla) but this one makes the most > sense at a glance. _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
