Description Peter Bowen 2001-11-06 21:28:06 UTC
running up2date --configure doesn't include a way to change the serverURL
and noSSLServerURL options in the config file.  This was necessary to move
from the beta servers to the main ones after the beta period was over. 
Additionally, it makes it hard to use other non-RHN servers such as
http://openup.mullicrusher.org/

Comment 1 Adrian Likins 2001-11-06 21:31:14 UTC
use the text mode config or edit the file. 

In normal operations, there is no need to change
the serverURL.


A subtle "bug report" btw ;->

Comment 2 Adrian Likins 2002-05-08 21:58:32 UTC
I'll actually try to add this to the next release, should
be straightforward.

Comment 3 Adrian Likins 2003-01-20 22:42:26 UTC
should be there in versions 3.1.12 or higher

Comment 4 Jay Turner 2003-02-14 14:05:52 UTC
Fix confirmed with up2date-3.1.15-7.
