Problem in installing the software using the command line
Hi all,
i am new to linux, i am using Centos 6. There is some problem in the network settings as i am able to browse internet from a browser but when i am trying to use the terminal (using ping command) for any of the website (say www.google.com) nothing is happening. suppose i want to install some software (like hdf5), when i am using "sudo yum install hdf5" it shows large number of error massages like "error could not connect to the host". It would be a great help if someone provide the solution. Thanks in advance. Durgesh |

Seems like a lot of people are having the same problem. Hopefully this helps you. |
are you behind a router on a LAN ?
if so you have to configure yum to use it as to pinging google it is very easy to use the wrong command please post the command you are using CentOS BY DEFAULT DOSE NOT USE "sudo" You have to manually set it up if you understand the security RISKS and except them Cent uses "su" and "su -" BY DEFAULT also it is always a good idea to SEARCH the yum repos for the CORRECT NAME Code:
su - |
Thanks John and Rubian.Now yum is working fine i have installed all the software which are required. There is one more issue which i am facing, actually i am on a proxy server and don't know why i am not able to download the data from ftp sites. The same site is opening in the browser but when i am trying to use terminal for ftp noting happens (ftp: connect: Connection refused).
