Are you sure your network is working properly? Try:
Code:
host www.google.com |
Right, a couple of things:
1) It's often easier for us if you post the actual output of commands in [CODE][/CODE] tags, instead of attaching screenshots: Code:
like this 3) Running Code:
echo 'dp ALL=(ALL) ALL' >> /etc/sudoers 4) It sounds like you're having difficulty connecting to mirrors. Is your internet connection working? (I assume it probably is, as you have a browser window open in one of your screenshots looking at LinuxQuestions). Do you use a proxy in your web browser? What does running Code:
curl www.linuxquestions.org Hope this helps, |
the adobe reop is VERY VERY notorious for being off line and causing problems
disable it !!! change the "enabled=1" to "enabled=0" in the repo text file in /etc/yum.repo.d folder then use yum's " --enablerepo=adobe" to turn it on ( temporally )to update flash Also the "fast-mirror" is known to cause all kinds of annoying little problems all the time ( hence the "annoying" part ) unless you REALLY need it i would recommend you not use it But if you want then use it -- your choice . Also Be Aware that -- Fedora 16 will hit it's END OF LIFE on Feb. 08 2013 in just over one month at that time there will never be any more support for fedora 16 -- it will be basically dead. time to upgrade to fedora 17 or after Jan. 08 fedora 18 as to "Snark1994" post about SUDO fedora By Default dose not use it !!! Fedora used "su" and "su -" It was deemed a "too big" of a security risk and was disabled by default . also do not just try to install some named program SEARCH for it first -- it might have a slightly different name -- for example fedora has "chromium" in the base repos and if you add googles repo then chrome is in that one try as a normal user and NOT root Code:
su - your "echo do all for SUDO is the problem fedora dose not use sudo please use "su -" and do not forget the blank space and the dash |

did you read the fedora documentation about a proxy?
you need to configure yum to use the proxy . the fedora wiki http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/D...Guide/YumProxy and http://www.linux2aix.com/linux/redha...h-a-proxy.html this is from the fedora 5 docs but it still applies http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/...xy-server.html Yum needs to be able to use your proxy |
