Hello,
I'm configuring the addresses for the network interface statically so
i was under the impression name resolution would work. For the gpg key
import i did an rpm --import /etc/pki/ i can't remember the rest of
this path though i checked it on a running system. I'm still getting a
freeze.
Thanks.
Dave.
