I would like to distribute my commercial application using yum (for ease of use and ease of update) on redhat/fedora/centos systems.
The user still has to purchase an account to use the application (via a username/pass login system), but the application itself is free to download - though it is distributed in binary, closed-source form.
Is yum the right choice for this? and if so - is it best to setup a remote repository on my servers to host the yum package? I can't find much information online how to setup a private remote yum repository. If this is the approach i should use, does anyone have any resources on doing this?
Thanks
