Yum MUST do http byteranges to work (it slurps the headers out of the complete .rpm files on the server) so if you can't do byteranges, you don't really have many alternatives other than: * mirroring the whole repo locally * use ftp (which accomplishes byteranges differently) If your corporate firewall doesn't allow byteranges, though, that's pretty broken. Finally, you should send such queries to the yum mailing list in the future. You'll get better help that way, I promise :) -Michael -- Michael D.
