Hello,
the last times, when I tried to update,
it get time outs; even when 'yum list'

how or where can I reset this behavour, to have the really fastest mirros used?
Thanks in advance, Walter

Yes, but doesn't help ... the same before ...
by the way, I can't image that there is no mirror in Europa, and that the "timeout"-mirrors from US are the fastest;
I'm from Europe / Austria;

yes this goes fast, no timeout; can I configure this in /etc/yum.conf?

You can just remove the plugin: yum remove yum-fastestmirror

That’s annoying. I’ve filed a bug for that upstream:

That’s annoying. I’ve filed a bug for that upstream:
I found out some crazy things
my setup is private IPv4 behind a NAT-Router (192.168.1.0/24) and as my ISP is still IPv4only I have a IPv6 tunnel (Hurricane Electric) the other end of the tunnel is not in US, it is in Germany(!)
any access with port 80 or 443 is blocked except from proxy; and I did the following on squid:
tcp_outgoing_address 192.168.1.10 linux-hosts
and now
after 'yum clean all', I get this when 'yum list kernel'
[root@host /]# yum list kernel Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Determining fastest mirrors * base: mirror.inode.at * extras: mirror.inode.at * updates: mirror.inode.at ... and this is what I except ...
and the following settings in /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/fastestmirror.conf
exclude=.edu,.com,.org include_only=.at$,.ch$,.de$,.nl$,.uk$
are placebo, they don't work; because without the "hack setting" in squid, which in fact disables IPv6 for the linux-hosts(!) these two settings result in
Determining fastest mirrors * base: mirror.keystealth.org * epel: mirror.math.princeton.edu * extras: mirror.keystealth.org * updates: mirror.keystealth.org

The correct way to disable a yum plugin is to set enabled to zero in the plugin config file:
/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/fastestmirror.conf

ok I did this, and then did some yum install - works without timeout where could I tell yum to use existing mirrors in my near instead of one on the other side of the world?
in this config I saw remarked the following:
#include_only=.nl,.de,.uk,.ie
when I set enabled=1 and removed the #-comment on this line 'yum list kernel' shows this:
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security Determining fastest mirrors epel/metalink | 8.6 kB 00:00 * base: ftp.usf.edu Including mirror: archive.linux.duke.edu Including mirror: mirror.unl.edu * epel: archive.linux.duke.edu * extras: ftp.usf.edu * updates: ftp.usf.edu

Thanks, Walter
I note that duke.edu matches uk, and unl.edu matches nl.
Maybe they are regular expressions, i just tried with
#include_ony=.nl,.de
and got less surprising results
