That might work if the ftp server was a real IP on the internet but
addresses like ftp://... don't seem to work inside my non resolvalbe

ftp will find reader.local.net0 but not ftp://reader.local.net0
I wonder if there is a way to work a HERE document or something into
the syntax?
This is what I use in yum.conf and works every time.
