That's fedora's yum using mirrorlist, which tells it the various urls to the repositories. Since there's no network, it can't get the urls. As to firebird, you need to take that to the fedora software/vendor support channels to see if it's available, however a 'yum list fire\*' should show you. Once you get network connectivity back that is. -- During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act. George Orwell
