yes, if ur server do not connect to internet, then u need to install it manually and apply it to ur servers.. its really bothering me as well, but if it's possible try to open the access-list from your router to allow it download from the redhat networks for a while then close it again. actually there is no use to patch the server when the server is not connected to internet. it only will bring an disaster and screw the systems of your server which is currently working fine. stupid auditors or security team makes this thing happened.

#include <roaraudio.h> int roar_stream_connect_to(struct roar_connection * con, struct roar_stream * s, int type, char * host, int port); DESCRIPTION
This let the sound server connect to some remote end to get it's data for a stream. This is used internaly to open additional streams for roar_simple_new_stream(3). NOTE: This is not an alternative version of roar_stream_connect(3). You still need to connect the stream to the server via roar_stream_con- nect(3) before you can use this call. PARAMETERS
con The connection to the server. s The stream to connect. type, host, port Where the stream should be connected to. For a description of all these parameters see roar_socket_listen(3). NOTES

On success these calls return 0. On error, -1 is returned. EXAMPLES
