First off.. you should probably lock the attitude up. No one needs to be witness to your projecting middle-of-the-week blues onto others. Second.. thanks for the answers. I got what I needed. -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Tim Sent: Tuesday, April 07, 2009 1:12 PM To: Community assistance, encouragement, and advice for using Fedora.

Classified as *what*? Gawd but I hate that term, it says nothing. *EVERYTHING* is classified (terms like that are stupid, donkeys are animals, this email is public, etc., etc., etc.). The word "classified" is *NOT* a description. If the machine is one that must be kept in a particular, and known, state, then you can't update it willy nilly, and must only install pre-approved updates. Your question is next to impossible to answer without adequate information. > Is there a way that I can bring updates into the area since I can’t > use yum? > Yes. * Run a second machine with the same packages installed, whenever it pulls in an updated package, copy the downloaded files and install the same packages on your other machine (via local network, disc, etc.). * Mirror an updates repo, do your updates from it as your local repo. * Manually download new updates, local install them. * Other options, too. This email is classified. The classification is public. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.21-78.2.41.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
