Found what I was trying to find in yum.conf, but it's not working...
proxy=http://hostname.domain.com/ proxy_username=domain\myusername proxy_password=mypassword
# yum check-update Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up repositories Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=5&arch=i386&repo=extras error was [Errno 14] HTTP Error 407: Proxy Authentication Required Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: extras
That's the legit user/pass syntax. I use it when surfing with Firefox.
Thanks, Scott

Is there a way to use an HTTP proxy (with a user/pass) with yum? Or at least a way to pass a user/pass through yum? I have a situation with a CentOS server behind a web filter appliance.
Thanks, Scott
