Hi Jorg, Please keep the discussion on the list, so others can participate too (and find it in the archives if they run into the same problem later on). On Fri, Jan 19, 2007 at 12:58:27 +0100, Jorg.Schulz@systeam.se wrote:

Hi Johannes

Using Crux 2.1 as a monitoring Server (Nagios) apache/mod_php/ There is no error att all just nothing happend when i run ports -u What does "nothing happened" mean here? Does it return instantly without any output, or hang?

or will run a prt-get install <package> Note that that's entirely independent from httpup or ports -u. pkgmk uses wget to download the files, so you'll need to configure the proxies for wget as well.

The Crux server i behind a Windows Proxy server on port 8080 I created a httpup.conf under /etc

proxy_host http://<IPADDRESSOFPROXY> proxy_port 8080

Should be enough or ?? If there's no access control then that should be it, yes. You can verify

You can verify this independently from prt-get/pkgmk by downloading a file using wget. that independently from ports(8) by running httpup sync http://jw.smts.ch/files/crux/ports/ /tmp/jw If this works, then chances are /etc/ports contains only *.cvsup or *.rsync file but no *.httpup; for 2.1 you'll probably want http://crux.nu/files/core.httpup http://crux.nu/files/opt.httpup Also, make sure you move the *.cvsup and *.rsync files away, otherwise ports -u will try to sync those. If you switched from *.cvsup (i.e. a very old 2.1 installation), you'll probably also want to read http://crux.nu/Main/ServerMigration HTH, Johannes -- Johannes Winkelmann mailto:jw@smts.ch Zurich, Switzerland http://jw.smts.ch
