Hi,

The /etc/resolv.conf file was wrong so I edited it to read the
nameserver IPs and the primary domain name. This cured the
problem in the second server. It is merrily connecting to the
repository at lsu.edu without any problems.
Now the first server which is the topic of discussion,still has
a problem with fedoralecay.org.

After editing resolv.config I did a yum update, towards the ens
of the process there was a message:

Error getting
http://download..........................header.info
[Errno 4] IO Error: HTTP Error 404:  not found
