I just changed my /etc/resolv.conf to an OpenDNS nameserver and the curl
ran correctly. When I rerun yum install htop, the system is back into a
tight loop.
This is real bad guys, need ideas...

HELP!!!!
I'm working on a second virtual guest in a crisis situation and the
tight looping situation is still present. I changed my /etc/resolv.conf
to only search 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and the curl line listed below is
100% looped.
I have a customer whose server is complete toast (bad, bad, bad
situation) and we are likely to have to rebuild them from paper records.
My not being able to build CentOS systems is real ugly for me at the
moment.

...hopefully it gets that far. So for example, on mine I'd use
mirror.steadfast.net <http://mirror.steadfast.net>
<http://mirror.steadfast.net> . Then check the
/var/cache/yum/i686/6/base/__mirrorlist.txt file and it should
show you
the path to the os directory for that server, e.g. mine has :
http://mirror.steadfast.net/__centos/6.5/os/x86_64/
<http://mirror.steadfast.net/centos/6.5/os/x86_64/>
So I'd run :
curl
http://mirror.steadfast.net/__centos/6.5/os/x86_64/repodata/__repomd.xml
<http://mirror.steadfast.net/centos/6.5/os/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml>
to make sure it can get the file. Again just a connectivity test,
because in your straces it was getting stuck trying to make these
connection attempts.
Okay, this is getting more frustrating by the minute.
I can do nslookup on mirrorlist.centos.org
<http://mirrorlist.centos.org> and get a list of four IPs.
I do not have the /var/cache/i386/6/base/__mirrorlist.txt file.
There is a packages directory in base.
If I try to yum update, it loops like before.
