I have situation where my ISP has blocked .rpm and .deb files to be downloaded. I am already using a proxy to access the Internet. So any chance of me updating via Internet is bleak.One peculiar thing though - I am able to download .rpm of Google chrome, but any other source or site or software I try I am blocked. Also I have to work on unregistered RHEL 6; I've already had a hard time setting it up with a 3rd party repository, and now I am faced with this restriction.I want to ask for suggestion as to what I can do. I will list a few things I thought, tell what you think and also suggest if you have some.I can download the software repo from different ISP and use it offline. Repos which addresses to a local location is allowed by yum.I can download .tar (and derivatives) from this ISP. So do you know any software repository which give me only .tar (or similar) files for the software? I searched but couldn't find any.Try other package management - different flavor of Linux. I am trying different Linux - like Arch Linux, Puppy Linux (though won't serve my purpose) etc.
