proxy authentication with online updates
Last modified: 2007-12-04 09:13:01 UTC
Hi all, with yast we weren't able to install online updates on openSUSE 10.3. We've done the following: - yast -> Software -> Online Update Configuration -> Next (automatically checked "Configure Now (Recommended)") Finally we've got "Your configuration was successful. An update server has been added to your configuration." The update server is "http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/?alias=openSUSE-10.3-Updates". - yast online_update Here we get the final message "No active update source is available." In the network trace (text based wireshark) on openSUSE 10.3 we see: Hypertext Transfer Protocol GET http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/media.1/products HTTP/1.1\r\n Request Method: GET Request URI: http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/media.1/products Request Version: HTTP/1.1 Proxy-Authorization: Basic Og==\r\n Credentials: : User-Agent: Novell ZYPP Installer\r\n Host: download.opensuse.org\r\n Pragma: no-cache\r\n Accept: */*\r\n Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive\r\n \r\n For a comparison here almost the same network packet on openSUSE 10.2: Hypertext Transfer Protocol GET http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/suse/update/10.2/repodata/repomd.xml HTTP/1.1\r\n Request Method: GET Request URI: http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/suse/update/10.2/repodata/repomd.xml Request Version: HTTP/1.1 Proxy-Authorization: Basic dTEwNHNlY3A6TmhvbGFlemx1Zw==\r\n Credentials: Benutzer:Geheim User-Agent: Novell ZYPP Installer\r\n Host: ftp.gwdg.de\r\n Pragma: no-cache\r\n Accept: */*\r\n Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive\r\n \r\n We think the proxy authentification with online updates on openSUSE 10.3 doesn't work correctly. Could you please try to reproduce and correct the problem if necessary. Thank you very much.
