The weirdness only gets worse!

Our network consultant increased the size of the DNS return area (or
some such) on our firewall.  Now, if I only use the nameserver 4.2.2.2,
I can run:

curl "http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=6&arch=i386&repo=os";

Subsequent yum calls hard loop on:

/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/yum  some command (doesn't matter what yum
command)

Common Man!!!

Thank you for continuing to suffer my ramblings. More data points. I am able to run the above curl - sometimes. Specifically if I edit /etc/resolv.conf and reduce the nameserver to either 4.2.2.2 or 208.67.222.222. The curl will then run _ONCE_. If I go edit /etc/resolv.conf again switching the nameserver, the curl will run again.

Just did add the --verbose argument to curl and got the attached text. IPv6??? Found a CentOS 6 FAQ on how to disable IPv6 which I have applied by editing /etc/sysctl.conf and rebooting:

net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1

But still no joy!!!!

Howard
