Linux + how to install vsftp if no network access
Im currently taking a Red Hat class. As a side note, Im not thrilled. I wanted to stay on the LPI track so that I could be non vendor specific... but hard to find in person classroom traning...
Anyway .. I was given a lab that shows how to setup a ftp server. Easy enough. I went to work after the class and a colleague needed help setting up a VM and vsftp on a system that was behind a proxy / firewall. A lab environment ... I was able to get the OS up and running because I have copies on my external drive and on DVD. The problem - I couldn't figure out was how the heck to load vsftp without network access .. or more correctly filtered network access. Appreciate any help or even pointing me to a doc will do .. Thanks Regards Sum |
On the system install disk you used to install the VM, there should be a folder called "pool" which contains a significant amount of software, sorted alphabetically. On RedHat I would be surprised if it's not there.

Yes. Thank you. I went back to class today and told the professor about my problem. He also said look on the installation DVD for the rpm or deb.
Two potential problems 1 if you load via iso. 2 dependancies Thanks so much for all the help 2hile this rookie tries too make the next leap. |
Not sure about RHEL7, but for 6 (& 5 ?), if you look in /etc/yum.repos.d there should be a Media repo file eg
Code:
cat CentOS-Media.repo |
