I think I know what you mean, but I want to be sure: "no http connection can be made to the server" means it's a bad url or the server is down or something. "a network connection isn't available" means the box you're running on isn't connected to the net? (this one I'm not sure of) From the perspective of yum, these two would be the same, so that makes sense. This should be easy to fix. -Michael -- Michael Stenner Office Phone: 919-660-2513 Duke University, Dept. of Physics mstenner@xxxxxxxxxxxx Box 90305, Durham N.C. 27708-0305
