One more clue............ Connection Refused.

Are you able to do telnet to port 80 to this site?

If you are behind proxy server , use export http_proxy=http://<proxy_server_ip>:<Port>

Hi nehal i have already checked all the option you have define.

i can able to telnet on 80 port.

My server is directory connected to internet so no proxy is there.

and mirror list is fine.  i have checked in other server and it's working fine.

As per Nirmal bhai said i also marked that it's a network issue.

I cannot download anything but i can able to access internet.

I have attached a two LAN card on server.

I have checked all logs file but seems not finding anything from log files.

Let me know if you have any other ideas to solve this problem.

Use yum -v instead of yum to get more verbose o/p.
