You can of course delete it. report_mirror can't work from behind a proxy (yet, any volunteers??). And my internal mirrors are behind authenticating proxies. And, it uses HTTPS, which further complicates things. So, to test, I actually have to dump the data that *would* be sent to the server into a file (it's just a python pickle), copy the data outside the firewalls, and then upload it to the database. And, it's a handy debug tool to be able to get the data out cleanly without having to upload and then go poke through the database to get it back out. :-) Thanks, Matt -- Matt Domsch Software Architect Dell Linux Solutions linux.dell.com & www.dell.com/linux Linux on Dell mailing lists @ http://lists.us.dell.com
