Hi every body.I already have installed centOs 5.2 on Vmware.It works on a PC and connect to internet via proxy.I want to make rpm packages but it's not possible because RPM-Build package is not installed. So I decided to use yum to download all necessary packages.I configured /etc/repos.d/CentOs-Base.repo es and /etc/yum.conf once and /etc/repos.d/CentOs-Base.repo es and /etc/profile.conf the other time but I got the same error:

Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Setting up Update Process
Setting up repositories
http://repo.elastix.org/centos/5/upd...ta/repomd.xml: [Errno 4
]IOError:<urlopen error (-3, 'Temporary failure in name resolution')>
Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot open/read repomd.xml filr or repository: elastix-beta

here is my /etc/yum.repos.d/centOS-Base.repo:

# CentOS-Base.repo
#
# This file uses a new mirrorlist system developed by Lance Davis for CentOS.
# The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the
# update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and
# geographically close to the client. You should use this for CentOS updates
# unless you are manually picking other mirrors.
#
# If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the
# remarked out baseurl= line instead.
