Greetings ... Greetings ... Sorry for the long post, but I would to help fill in all the details that I can ... Please could I also ask, what is the best command line to give you tcpdumps and straces? > could you try using a mirror and see if the problem goes away? I > ask b/c download.fedora.redhat.com is normally extremely busy > right after a release. I don't think this is a problem with download.fedora.redhat.com, because I have had this with a few sites. I already us the mirror link in yum repo, which should randomly choose a site ... Here is another screen dump, which shows the same error, but with another site ...
