Description James Bowes 2010-01-25 15:26:59 UTC 
comps.xml can not be served by the proxy layer, as we don't set the right headers to allow it to. There's no reason why it couldn't be however, so set these headers.

To test
=======

Ingredients:
- rhel 5 client machine
- root access to the environment's proxy
- root access to the environment's python machine

Directions:
- Log into both the proxy and python machines. on each, run 'tail -f /var/log
  /httpd/access_log.TODAYS_DATE'. Set aside.
- Register your client machine to the given environment.
- run 'yum clean all && yum makecache' on your client machine.
- watch the proxy and python logs. You should see requests for repomd.xml, 
  primary.xml.gz, and comps.xml. The log entries use an extended format of: 
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Log_Format. If the number of bytes served 
  from python is less than from the proxy, xrepcon has worked.
- Bake at 520 degrees for 38 minutes.
