Classy response John ... [thumbs up] You might want to try submitting any additional questions to the RedHat general discustion list (since according to Alexander this is not an open discussion forum) where there are many more brains to pick. You can subcribe from here: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list I do agree that this appears to be a NS issue and not Yum so you should start there and make sure the box can properly "see" the Inet before further troubleshooting Yum. Good luck.
