Fedora14 behind a proxy | solved
Question:
How to use Yum behind a proxy in Fedora14 ?
When i try to use yum update behind a proxy i got this error:
[root@unixmen-Fedora14 ~]# yum update
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
Adding en_US to language list
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. Please verify its path and try again
Answer:
As root Edit /etc/yum.conf with vi, nano or gedit.
vi /etc/yum.conf
and add this line :
proxy=http://ip:port/
If you connect with login and pass , should be
proxy=http://user:pass@hostproxy:port/
save and exit
Now try again to install or update your system
(It is working also For Fedora 12 and 13)

You can actually unzip your secret archive by leaving out the -t option, instead using:
unzip newPhoto.jpg
