Good day!
Is it possible to tell cvsup to use another
machine's global access in fetching the freebsd source
updates??
Here's my office workstation setup:
(private ip) (pri/pub ip) (all public)
workstation ----> router ---->proxy server--->internet
mail server
web server
In short, I have a private ip workstation, I can reach
the internet through our proxy server via a dual homed
router. The proxy server, of course has a globally
routable ip. The proxy server can run cvsup without
any problem. I have a priviledge account at the proxy
server. Now what I want to do is run cvsup in my
workstation(private ip) but tell the cvsup to go
through the router... and then go through the proxy..
and then tell the proxy to forward the cvsup to the
internet(freebsd cvsup server) and then return the
fetched files back through the router... then back to
my workstation.. and make me live happily ever after..
Is it possible? I find the ssh tunneling with the -R
option somewhat close to what I'm trying to
accomplish.
I've used the -R option in ssh'ing from the outside(
public ip machine) to my office workstation(with
private ip) through one of our publicly routable
server machines) but I don't really think it has some
relevance with what I would want to accomplish above.
I need to update our private LAN workstations using
CVSUP but I don't know how exactly will I do it. Any
idea?
Thanks Friend,
You're the best!!
