Did you see my respone to Jeff?
Im not sure there is a url scheme for this usage.
My setup is an internal ftp server with no (Internet) IP. That is, it
has a local made up IP in the private range.
192.168.xxx.xxx = reader.local.net0.
ftp has no provision for handing that url a uid and password in the
url that I'm aware of. Shemes beginning ftp:// do not work in that
case. Isn't that a short comming of ftp protocol or are you saying
yum should fix that?
If I were to run my own nameserver. I guess the problem would
disappear. In any event I can cure my trouble by using the http
protocol instead. http://reader.local.net0/fed3raw
That url scheme works inside the lan long as I have the httpd server
running on reader.local.net. No nameserver required.
Someone give me more clue if this is bug material please.
