Is there a way to use an HTTP proxy (with a user/pass) with yum? Or
at least a way to pass a user/pass through yum? I have a situation
with a CentOS server behind a web filter appliance.
Add the following to /etc/wgetrc
http_proxy = http://username:password@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:8080/
ftp_proxy = http://username:password@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:8080/
Since when does yum read wgetrc?
I believe yum uses wget (or libraries) and wget reads wgetrc, I picked
this up from the yum mailing list and it works too! :-)
