That's the question. Does network access work with F12 after your fresh reinstall? And even if tools other than "curl" can access the network, it may still be that curl needs an update before it would work. > i am currently emailing with sl5.4. > > i logged http://www.nic.com/index.html to resolve addresses for; > > download.fedora.redhat.com > ns1.redhat.com 66.187.233.210 Dubious. That's the IP address of the name server at Red Hat. download.fedora.redhat.com is 209.132.183.67 If you're capable of editing Yum .repo files, it is possible to go into /etc/yum.repos.d and modify fedora.repo and fedora-updates.repo Where you see the lines #baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/updates/$releasever/$basearch/ mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=updates-released-f$releasever&arch=$basearch You drop the leading '#' from the baseurl=... line and replace "download.fedoraproject.org with download.fedora.redhat.com OR the IP address posted above. If you then still cannot access that repo, something's wrong with your networking. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
