as this is not specific to testing, asking here. I want to use an /nfs/ mountpoint as the yum cache. edit /etc/yum.conf done. is it possible to yum update as named user, which is me. with out having to do a su\sudo *1 I can chown -R root:user the cache /nfs/yum/$release/$arch, or would user:root be more suitable? for browsing\modifying with file manager (Thunar), or command line as user. 70/30% on the rl3/rl5 usage There doesn't seem to be a group to join for yum\system updating, root:root seems to own all yum* files\dirs. Though, was under the impression apps, had to own all dirs they created https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#File_and_Directory_Ownership I'm probably wrong if yum is a filesystem app. How can a dir be co-owned? Is this different to the usual root:something idea? *1 Only for this yum idea. Otherwise su\sudo is fine for other operations. -- Regards, Frank "Jack of all, fubars" -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
