I had thought that I would just grab the files from home, put them on my machine, and all will be fine. The problem is that Tumbleweed is quite active. The files change over the day. So getting the ones that cause the complaint is difficult. When I get back to work, new files may complain.
Don't use tumbleweed... :-P
Question:
The IT guys have offered to white list a site where the files will be passed through. So I thought I would suggest download.opensuse.org. The problem is that zypper uses mirrors. So the downloads may not actually come from there. I thought I would just specify a local mirror in the URL.
Unfortunately, mirrors seem not to mirror everything on download.opensuse.org. So, I thought I might use the mirror URL for the repos that the mirror has. But that leaves the other repos. Like http://download.opensuse.org/update/tumbleweed/, which I do not see on the mirrors I have checked.
It would be a question of locating a mirror that contains all you need, or some mirrors.
Is it possible (even though I understand that it is perhaps bad netiquette) to tell zypper to not use a mirror? At least this may allow me to verify that, when white listed, the files from a repo can be obtained.
A nice feature for zypper could be that it tries a mirror, and after a couple failures, it tries the specified repo before failing.
The thing is, it is not zypper which decides the mirror to use, but the mirrorbrain at the download server. Your people would have to decide to clear not a server outside, but one inside. The one that creates an internal mirror. Install an antivirus in that machine, and do the scanning in there. Suspect files are notified, and you clear them manually after confirmation. While the mirror sync job is working, the server does not serve the LAN. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.
