I could dig up on google and tried the proxy route - no joy, no love.
According to my sysadmin there is no proxy on this network, and HIS Fedora
Core 4 box does a yum update fine. Can anyone tell me a) how I can get more
detailed error information (yes, I have tried -e 10 and -d 10, they don't
actually tell me anything about the connection, just high-level stuff) and
b)Whether there is any workaround for these issues. I have tried going the
route of hard-coded ftp-only repos in the CentOS box and it responds with
this:
I'd suggest running ethereal or some other packet sniffer and see what
you can gather from a packet log. It's almost certainly some sort of
network problem. A proxy does sound like the most likely culprit.
Hopefully, a packet trace will turn something up.
Along those lines:
- dig {sitename} - does it resolve ?
- ping www.google.com {should answer}
- does wget work for any of the urls that fail ?
- yum -d 255 whatever {and post the first two failures or so, without
all the blank lines, as well as the actual command being attempted.}
