[rhn-users] Updating with RPM.

[Fabián E. Barco]

Hi,
Should I execute rpm --import RPM-GPG-KEY command when I want to use rpm -F
option?
is RPM-GPG-KEY a file? where is it?

thanks

  Asunto: [rhn-users] Updating with RPM.


  Some days ago I posted a message where I asked for a procedure to
automatically update a linux server without a connection to internet (for
example homed in the DMZ) etc.
  Well, unfortunately I didn't find any solution or tool excpet up2date for
the machine used to interface RedHat Network. So I used a USB memory card (a
CD may be used too) to store all the RPMs and a shell script to do
automatically the updates on the others servers.

  The commands I used are:
  # Import the key to verify RPM if it is not present
  rpm --import RPM-GPG-KEY

  # First update RPM resolving dependencies

  rpm -Fvh glibc-devel*.rpm nptl-devel-2.3.2-95*.rpm
  rpm -Uvh elfutils-0.94*.rpm elfutils-devel*.rpm elfutils-libelf*.rpm
  rpm -Uvh bind*.rpm
  rpm -Fvh httpd*.rpm mod_ssl-2.0.46-4*.rpm
  rpm -Fvh mozilla*.rpm
  rpm -Uvh popt*.rpm rpm*.rpm
  rpm -Fvh samba*.rpm
  rpm -Fvh kdebase*.rpm kdelibs*.rpm
  rpm -Fvh XFree*.rpm
  rpm -Fvh cyrus*.rpm
  rpm -Fvh chkconfig*.rpm ntsysv*.rpm
  rpm -Fvh krb*.rpm
  rpm -Fvh gcc-*.rpm cpp*.rpm libgcc*.rpm lib*.rpm
  rpm -Uvh laus-libs*.rpm
  rpm -Fvh glibc-2*.rpm glibc-common*.rpm glibc-utils*.rpm shadow-utils*.rpm
laus*.rpm

  Then I write a loop which exec RPM -Fvh for each RPM present in the USB
card. If I found some error dependency I will update the instruction list
above.

  Perhaps it may be banal, however I posted hoping you will find it useful.

  Bye.
