Hi Guys,
My apologies for earlier mail without subject line. kindly ignore.
i've CentOS 6.6 (Final) 64 bit version installed and I can not access the
online repositories to install/update (pls see eror below the error), I
tried to google this error I get a lot of links but nothing I could really
solving this issue. I've already disabled ipv6 and also defined proxy in
/etc/yum.conf.
[root@myhost ~]# yum update

Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository:

If I try to use 'wget' to get 'repomd.xml' then it works fine.
