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) -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
