yum apparently still can't cope with transparent proxies. I tried the following and got the yum http behind proxy error:
Is there an ftp version of the mirrorlist or are those of us that have to use transparent proxies stuck without this new feature?

I am using Yum behind a transparent Squid proxy and it works great for me. I am also using DansGuardian. One thing I *DID* have to do was to add an exception IP address for my CentOS box in the DansGuardian access lists.
