sounds like you can't connect to a mirror.centos.org mirror ...
I am connecting fine right now doing a 4.1 install and upgrade to 4.2
(although it is slower than I would like :)
Your best bet is to pick a mirror that is close to you geographically
from here:
http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=13
Browse to the mirror in your web browser and make sure it responds fast
for your ... pick the best / fastest mirror for your location.
then edit the file /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources and look for:
http://mirror.centos.org/centos and replace it with the info for a
mirror for all the enabled repos ... for example if this mirror was
closest:
US OH JTL Networks
Then you would replace http://mirror.centos.org/centos with
http://mirrors.jtlnet.com/centos/
IF http is causing you problems, try ftp://mirrors.jtlnet.com/centos/
(again, if that is the fastest mirror from your location)
