This is repeatable? :) That name does not resolve for me (which may not be surprising) so I can't test that url. This is on a local LAN, and is not available on the internet. Here is the result of the urlgrabber.pyc: [root@ul055 html]# python /usr/share/yum/urlgrabber.pyc http://midrangeweb.principal.com/pub/updates/7.3/en/os/headers/header.info header.info throttle: 1.0, throttle bandwidth: 32768 B/s [Errno 4] IOError: [Errno socket error] nonnumeric port Try this for me: python /usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/yum/urlgrabber.pyc http://midrangeweb.principal.com/pub/updates/7.3/en/os/headers/header.info header.info (that should all be on one line) I _may_ have the urlgrabber.pyc path wrong, so correct it if I do. Tell me what happens when you do that. I expect that to fail if your problem is repeatable. If it does fail, do this: python <<EOF import urllib fo = urllib.urlopen("http://midrangeweb.principal.com/pub/updates/7.3/en/os/headers/header.info";) ofo = open('/tmp/header.info', 'w') ofo.write(fo.read()) EOF And tell me what happens with that.
