[SOLVED] yum equivalant of the apt-get /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/95proxies file for running behind a proxy?

Issue

I have been trying to get yum working behind a proxy setting export https_proxy, http_proxy and ftp_proxy.

This didn't work for apt-get or yum, but when I set these in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/95proxies it worked a treat.

Is there any yum equivalent when working with centos?


Solution

Ok so looks like you set it in /etc/yum.conf

# The proxy server - proxy server:port number
proxy=http://mycache.mydomain.com:3128
# The account details for yum connections 
proxy_username=yum-user
proxy_password=qwerty
