http URLs under /etc/yum.repos.d to be replaced by https.

[rb665848]

CentOS 7:
The yum repo files under /etc/yum.repos.d have the below http URLs, but we have a requirement wherein we need to use only the https URLs.

http://vault.centos.org
http://debuginfo.centos.org
http://mirror.centos.org
http://mirrorlist.centos.org

Can you please let me know what are the equivalent https URLs for the above ones?

Thank you,
Ramakrishna Battula.

Did you try simply replacing the "http" with "https"? Those URLs appear to redirect to https anyway!

Code: Select all

wget  http://vault.centos.org

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Sorry, the first URL is mistakenly given, but the rest don't redirect to https. I need the equivalent https URLs for them(given below).

http://debuginfo.centos.org
http://mirror.centos.org
http://mirrorlist.centos.org

Thanks in advance.

I think you are going to have to find a specific mirror that supports https and use that URL in your repo files. For example:
https://ftp.dimensiondata.com/mirror/centos/7/

Why are you doing this? The packages are signed and the signatures are checked before the packages are used.

https://www.centos.org/download/mirrors/ may help.

The reason for replacing http with https is that port 80 is blocked in our organization due to security issues.

Thank you.
