Forcing Update Center to use a specific mirror? Or creating my own?

[Jeff]

Our Jenkins server is inside a secure environment with very limited external connectivity.  I was able to finally convince the powers that be to create an exception in our proxy to allow the Jenkins master to contact the update center URL.  However when I try to download, it redirects to a mirror which is not allowed.

Can I somehow tell the update center to NOT use a mirror or use a specific mirror that I can whitelist so I don't have to allow all possible mirror URLs?

Alternatively could I configure my own local mirror that I can use?  

Thanks!!

Hi,

Probably better to direct that kind of question either to the jenkins-infra ML, or on the #jenkins-infra IRC channel.

Cheers!

Sorry to bring back this old issue, but I'm having the same problem now. 

My proxy only allows accessing URLs inside the jenkins-ci.org domain. 

I managed to work around the redirect by having all references to "updates.jenkins-ci.org/download" replaced with "archives.jenkins-ci.org" in my default.json file, located at the JENKINS_HOME/updates directory. 

It's kind of ugly, I know, but it works ok since archives.jenkins-ci.org never redirects anywhere.
