Hi Dinar,
I defined proxy in Yast2 and rug works fine, so it looks like rug now uses proxy setting from /etc/sysconfig/proxy (I remember that in 10.0 rug -- then part of Red Carpet -- used its own settings.
But zypper fails. I'll re-check though.
Hmmm, it was something else. Maybe temporary unaccessible repository. Now zypper works fine. BTW, it uses proxy user and password from /root/.curlrc. This file, though readable by root only, contains password in plain test. I think it's not a good idea. Anyone with an access to Linux machine can use another system (e.g. Knoppix, or Windows on dual boot machine) and read it, unless /root is stored on encrypted FS. I actually asked the same question on Novell forum regarding the Red Carpet (about a year ago), since rug had also stored unencrypted proxy password in the plain file, but have not got reasonable answer. -- Mark Goldstein -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
