Determining Yum repo URL












1















If I add a new repo file under /etc/yum.repo.d/ folder. How can I gather all the URL which yum update will go out to fetch updates.



I am asking this because I have a server behind a firewall, which will allow traffic only to predesignated domain names. I want to determine all the domain names so that I can whitelist them all, so that my server remains updated.

  • I am still behind this without any headway, Is there any easy method to figuring this out rather than sticking a proxy up in front and gathering all the domains ?

You can grep the URL's used by yum from the /etc/yum.repo.d/* files.



Meanwhile, yum will download lists of URL's and attempt to use the fastest URL for downloading. Those lists can/will change, so you will have to configure the URL's you wish to use.
