1> yum server Setup :
==================
>> Install Linux with > 6+ gb of /var partition
# lokkit and do the following
Security level : Disabled
SElinux : Disabled
Reboot the system (To Avoide any obstacle)
# mount /dev/dvd /mnt (mount your Linux dvd )
# cd /mnt
# You will see dir called “Server”
# Go to “Server” dir
# You will see all RPMs (3842)
# rpm -ivh vsftpd* (Do this in “Server” Dir)
# cp -r /mnt/* /var/ftp/pub/ (Do this outside the “Server” Dir)
# rpm -ivh createrepo* (Do this in “Server” Dir)
# createrepo -v /var/ftp/pub/Server (Will show lots of files)
# service vsftpd restart
# chkconfig vsftpd on
# iptables -F
# service iptables save
2> Server yum-client :
===================
On Server side it’s optional, but in future it’ s good for you to install any package on server
# cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
# cp rhel-debuginfo.repo vadapav1.repo
# Now open vadapav1.repo and you will see this :
[rhel-debuginfo]
name=Red Hat Enterprise Linux $releasever - $basearch – Debug baseurl=ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/$releasever/en/os/$basearch/Debuginfo/
enabled=0
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-redhat-release
Change the above to the following or make a copy of above and do below changes
[vadapav1]
name=Red hat Enterprise Linux $releasever - $basearch - Debug
baseurl=ftp://192.168.0.2>>>/pub/Server
enabled=1 ----> by default it is 0 --set to 1
gpgcheck=0 ----> by default it is 1 --set to 0
[Delete or comment last line gpgkey=file…… ]
# yum update list
# yum info gftp*
(If above two commands don't work, it means you have done something wrong in above two setups.)
3> Yum Client :
=============
Finally, configure yum server for the CLIENT.
>>>a. Go to this dir:
# cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
>>>b. Make a copy of this only file in this dir:
# cp rhel-debuginfo.repo station11.repo (any filename with .repo extention)
>>>c. Open that file:
# vi station11.repo
>>>d. Do the following changes so finally station11.repo file looks like this:
[rhel-debuginfo] change to [station11]
name=Red hat Enterprise Linux $releasever - $basearch - Debug---> Given DNT
Change this line to the following:
baseurl=ftp://192.168.0.2>>>/pub/Server
enabled=0----> change to 1
gpgcheck=1---> change to 0
[Delete or comment gpgkey(i.e, delete the last line)]
