i tried with the software update GUI in centos 6.0 but still the same proxy problem....can any one please suggest how to overcome this problem and install updates for packages.
what is this "proxy"? other than your use of the phrase 'proxy' a couple times, I see no sign of a proxy there.
If your internet connection is such that you have to go through an explicit http proxy, have you configured it in /etc/yum.conf as follows? http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/yum/sn-yum-proxy-server.html
