Description angus young 2000-10-18 13:26:10 UTC 
There is no options in up2date frontend to pass by a anonymous HTTP proxy
like in the precedent up2date of RedHat 6.2.
I saw an option in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date like this
enableProxy[comment]=Use a HTTP Proxy
enableProxy=0
pkgProxy[comment]=URL for HTTP proxy
pkgProxy=

that i modified like this

enableProxy[comment]=Use a HTTP Proxy
enableProxy=1
pkgProxy[comment]=URL for HTTP proxy
pkgProxy=http://192.168.98.254:8080

but with no success. No problem with up2date of Red Hat 6.2.
Appears to be an omit fonctionnality.
Is there a date of availability for a new version of up2date ?

I just want to precise that the anonymous registration could not be accomplished
because of a blue screen (not a windows screen ;-)). So no
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid
Comment 3 angus young 2000-10-20 14:11:33 UTC 
well, well, well no idea ???


Is there a problem with the secure connexion (ssl) by an http proxy (IMHO no)
