proftpd does not seem to want to install for me using yum (or apt-get for that matter). Doing a : yum search proftp Yields nothing. HelP?
Sorry, I'm using FC4. Code: [root@match ~]# yum install proftpd Repository updates is listed more than once in the configuration Repository base is listed more than once in the configuration Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories base 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 updates 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 Reading repository metadata in from local files Parsing package install arguments No Match for argument: proftpd Nothing to do [root@match ~]#
what is the output of Code: yum list installed | grep proftp or rpm -qa | grep proftp did you add any other repositories? (dag or dries) ... they will provide you with a right version for FC4
Neither of those give me any output worth posting (ie. nothing). It's defintetly not installed. How would I go about adding those other repositories? I know I added 3 for apt-get from the HOW-TO, but I don't know what the path might be for the others?
Code: [root@match /]# cat /etc/yum.conf # Note: This file is no longer the entire yum configuration # for fedorafaq.org. See http://www.fedorafaq.org/#yumconf # for details on how to set up your system with the new # yum configuration. [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum debuglevel=2 logfile=/var/log/yum.log pkgpolicy=newest distroverpkg=redhat-release tolerant=1 exactarch=1 obsoletes=1 # We don't want to gpg-check local, unsigned packages #gpgcheck=1 # Changed this because some mirrors go down and then # re-trying takes forever. retries=1 timeout=10 # PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo # in /etc/yum.repos.d
Appears to work now that I've addedt he dries respository, but I didn't see anything about adding aditional respositories in the HOWTO.
