YUM Client Configuration
YUM Client Configuration in RHEL 5
By configuring our system as YUM client, then we don’t want rpm source files. Dependency and rpm files to be installed will be brought from YUM server.
YUM server should configured in that network, by using that YUM server only we have to act as YUM client.
#vim /etc/yum.repos.d/rhel-debuginfo.repo
[rhel-debuginfo]
baseurl=ftp://192.168.1.254/pub/Server
gpgcheck=0
YUM Server IP : 192.168.1.254
gpgcheck=0
In default gpgcheck will be disabled i.e., (gpgcheck=0). If gpgcheck is enabled (gpgcheck=1), then while installing a package it will checks for all dependency and stops the all available packages also.
