I was following instructions in the wiki here http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/CreateLocalMirror to create a local mirror for testing VMs instead of hitting the public mirrors.

i've maintained a local centos repository at work using rsync, but it seems the corp honchos have decided to block rsync at our firewall, plus its never been 100% reliable, I'd get aborts on protocol errors sometimes several times before pulling down a complete new distro update. i'm trying to figure out how to do this with lftp, and its got me somewhat stymied. I'm testing

Hello again, Just answering to myself and the list for a conclusion. lftp in CentOS uses the default priority provided by gnutls and it's not possible to override it in

Greetings, I have written a script using lftp to mirror one directory from a ftp site. I do not have access to the server except for being a humble user.

As you might know, LFTP is a popular FTP/SFTP command-line client for most systems. One feature that is lacking from this tool is the ability to do a globbed ls via sftp. I have a patch ready for LFTP that incorporates some of the knowledge [like oddball systems glob() handling] and some of the code from sftp-glob.c for this tool to add this capability. I do, however, have some questions about

Hello, I'm doing an unattended CentOS 5.3 install in a virtual machine vmware. I'm redirecting output to a serial console because production boxes won't have monitors. I'm getting to the point of doing the post installation then the box freezes. The only command i have in %post is yum -y update. I'm not getting no output. Suggestions appreciated. In the commands section reboot

I am trying to mirror a directory using wget and the resulting files as expected are taking the name of the string in the url after the last "/". Anyone know a way around this? I am using the mirror option so I don't have to keep track of what to get making it simple. Thanks! jlc

I've installed ipw2200-firmware-3.0-3.nodist.rf from RPMForge using yum OK. I've loaded the ipw modules with /sbin/modprobe ipw2200 and then /sbin/lsmod | grep ipw which gives: ipw2200 136873 0 ieee80211 33417 1 ipw2200 However, when I run system-config-network I don't see Intel Coporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG (eth1) in the list of adapters.
