Just did a fresh install of CentOS 5 x86_64 on a vmware virtual box. Have done this successfully in the past but now run into problems with yum and perl CPAN. The error I get: http://centos.arcticnetwork.ca/5.0/os/x86_64/repodata/primary.xml.gz: [Errno 12] Timeout: <urlopen error timed out> Trying other mirror. continues until it runs out of mirrors. I'm able to access everything, ie: ping google.com lynx google.com is fine. I've tried halting iptables (I'm behind router) all to no avail. Any help would be appreciated. ron -- ================= Ron Dyck pulpfree1 at gmail.com www.webbtech.net ================= -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
