I know how to use 'ip' to set up a static route, e.g.: ip route add 192.168.128.0/17 via 40.53.24.3 dev eth0 But if you reboot or restart network, you loose this. Thus you have to make it persistant.

Googling for this feature, I saw reports from the yum developer that it wasn't yet implemented. This was in mailing list posts from a year or more ago. Did it ever make it into the yum code? I want to start downloading the updates for a server going from 5.0 to 5.1 and then do the actual installation once I'm on site. I don't want to have to wait around while there for the

I have to build my own rpms for the HIPL project. I update my copy of the code and make rpm. Thing is the rpm name never changes from patch to patch. Is there a way to have yum apply the new code as an update and not have to erase then install?

Hi I found yum-downloadonly and executed my command do that and save the dependencies in my current directory.

Hey folks, Is there any way to fake a "yum update" just to get yum to force a download of all the files it needs, without actually installing them. I finally have a RPM cache/proxy working and I just want to populate it. The server I want to actually update cannot be updated until tomorrow but I'd like to do a fake update just to force the RPMs into my cache so they will all be

How does one do this? Reading through the man pages for yum it doesn't look like its possible? I could use rpm, but I was hoping to pull down deps through yum automagically. Thanks! jlc

Hi, using centos 4.2 I am trying to build a script to install Open Exchange Open Source. I did a minimal install and now I want to "download only" the programs needed as well a resolve-and-download the dependencies needed, all into a directory so I can install later.

About thirty minutes ago I started an update. Everything downloaded fine. But when it came to "Running Transaction", it hung: ....

Can any one clarify this, is auto updating at all production servers recommended or not? need to know your opinion, how do you manage the update? -mu

Which is better? Why? I know yum is the official update mechanism here and in Fedora Core, but that doesn't make yum better than up2date any more than Windows NT was better than OS/2. Let's try to keep the discussion objective:-) I'm asking, hoping for some insights into why RH might (apparently) be moving to yum in preference to up2date (yum is now used within Anaconda). Other
