I have the feeling that the repository place, is linked to the place where you are installing Fedora. I am in France and apparently, the system goes directly to the french repository, which is not a http site , but an ftp site. Fedora cannot cope with that.. I replace manual the 'baseurl' and it seems to be able to download what it needs Now, I am facing some other problems, that I can't explain... Some of websites are available... some are not available.. ( when ALL of them, will be displayed on CentOS.... I disactivated iptables and I disactivated selinux.. ( I think that it's correctly removed. As soon as I write a website into Mozilla, I have 50% of chance to view the page... or I have a "page unavaible" I checked the DNS : a nslookup of the "faulty" website, show me the correct address... Any idea what "feature" block my access ? Thanks

Sounds like DNS issues. Post content of /etc/hosts /etc/resolv.conf

Effectively, I wrote by hand. So, sorry for the typo :-( We running our DNS server. Usually, I give our DNS server + one Open source DNS Into Fedora, I have : /etc/resolv.conf nameserver 134.29.9.59 ; this is our DNS Server nameserver 208.67.222.222 ; The opensource one : www.opendns.com /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost local.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 I compared with the hosts and resolv files on Centos. They are similar. today I made a nslookup www.bbc.co.uk I got : ;; Got SERVFAIL reply from 134.29.9.59, trying next server ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached I can do it 20 times... 20 times 'wrong' and another tome -> I received the answer.... Apparently, I've got the problem with Fedora 10 11 et 12 Fedora 7 works fine... Something has changed with the releases........ but i don't know what :-(

There are in mine. Also look in /etc/nsswitch.conf. Make sure the "host" line doesn't call for nis or nisplus. It should be: hosts: files dns

I have no choice... i think that there is some problems..... I checked the DNS in each case... seems to be fine now... but the GUI cannot catch the website. If you ask 10 times a specific website, it will appear 4 times.... but 6 times ..." Website not available" I made the test on 2 differenet machines All my Centos and Ubuntu are working fine on the network.. I reproduce exactly the same config on CentOS and on Fedora... I don't have the same result / Behaviour I am surprised that I cannot find anything clear answer on this problem on google ?!? Thanks anyway for your help |
