Assuming that I want to setup my own yum mirror (to have some form of guaranteed access), how do I specify the same in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources. I plan to use the up2date client to manage my Fedora box Currently, the format seems to be ### an yum style repo ### format: ### type channel-label url yum fedora-core-1 http://fedora.redhat.com/releases/fedora-core-1 yum updates-released http://fedora.redhat.com/updates/released/fedora-core-1 Can I point the channel to multiple urls and how will the urls be selected (in order of listing or roundrobin) Is there a list of existing Fedora Yum repositories or is everybody going to hammer fedora.redhat.com as soon as the first update is released Is it possible to have username:password in the URL's so I can use basic/digest authentication Regards, Yusuf -- If you're not using Firebird, you're not surfing the web you're suffering it http://www.mozilla.org/products/firebird/why/
