Instructions for how to use mirrors.xmission.com for your operating system are as follows:
CentOS
The main repository configuration file for CentOS is /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo. Below is an example configuration for the "base" repository.
[base] name=CentOS-$releasever - Base baseurl=http://mirrors.xmission.com/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6
CentOS supports the ftp://, http:// and https:// protocols in the baseurl line
Debian
The main repository configuration file for Debian is /etc/apt/sources.list. Below is an example configuration using the Debian Stable release:
deb http://mirrors.xmission.com/debian/ stable main non-free contrib deb-src http://mirrors.xmission.com/debian/ stable main non-free contrib
Debian supports the ftp, http and https protocols in the "deb" and "deb-src" lines. For Debian to grab packages via SSL using apt(8), you need to install the apt-transport-https package first before changing your URL:
$ sudo aptitude install apt-transport-https
EPEL
EPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux) is an extra repository mainly for RHEL and CentOS systems. The main repository configuration file for EPEL is /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo. Below is an example configuration for the "epel" repository.
[epel] name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 6 - $basearch baseurl=http://mirrors.xmission.com/fedora-epel/6/$basearch enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6
As with CentOS, the following protocols are supported in the baseurl line for EPEL: ftp://, http:// and https://.
Fedora
The main repository configuration file for Fedora is /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo. Below is an example configuration for the "fedora" repository.
[fedora] name=Fedora $releasever - $basearch baseurl=http://mirrors.xmission.com/fedora/linux/releases/$releasever/Everything/$basearch/os/ enabled=1 metadata_expire=7d gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-$basearch
Fedora supports the ftp://, http:// and https:// protocols in the baseurl line.
Gentoo
By default, distfiles.gentoo.org is used over HTTP. To override the default behavior, and add Xmission as a primary server, you can set the GENTOO_MIRRORS variable in /etc/portage/make.conf.
GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://mirrors.xmission.com/gentoo/ ${GENTOO_MIRRORS}"
Portage supports syncing its tree with ftp, http, https, and rsync in the GENTOO_MIRRORS variable.
Ubuntu
The main repository configuration file for Ubuntu is /etc/apt/sources.list. Below is an example configuration using the Ubuntu 12.04 "precise" LTS release, including the security updates:
deb http://mirrors.xmission.com/ubuntu precise main restricted universe multiverse deb-src http://mirrors.xmission.com/ubuntu precise main restricted universe multiverse deb http://mirrors.xmission.com/ubuntu precise-updates main restricted universe multiverse deb-src http://mirrors.xmission.com/ubuntu precise-updates main restricted universe multiverse deb http://mirrors.xmission.com/ubuntu-archive precise main restricted universe multiverse deb-src http://mirrors.xmission.com/ubuntu-archive precise main restricted universe multiverse
Ubuntu supports the ftp, http, and https protocols in the "deb" and "deb-src" lines. For Ubuntu to grab packages via SSL using apt(8), you need to install the apt-transport-https package first before changing your URL:
$ sudo aptitude install apt-transport-https
