Honestly, this looks like your machine cannot reach
http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el4/en/mirrors-rpmforge

This site is up and working properly.

Does this machine have direct connection to the internet?

Posted: **Wed Apr 25, 2012 10:17 am**

using proxy

Posted: **Wed Apr 25, 2012 11:40 am**

Make sure you have followed these steps

http://support.nagios.com/wiki/index.ph ... th_Proxies

Posted: **Thu Apr 26, 2012 4:17 am**

yes.

no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.0/8,10.0.0.0/8,172.16.0.0/12,192.168.0.0/16 # Hosts to exclude from proxying
i have not added above entry. is it necessary...

at persent i have hold my installation due to Manual Installation Problem: EPEL is down
once its up i will start my installation.

Posted: **Thu Apr 26, 2012 7:19 am**

At the very lease adding no_proxy for localhost,127.0.0/0/8 would be a wise idea.

when ia m givng yum list commnand
yum list
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:

No module named cElementTree

Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.

It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.4.3 (#1, Dec 22 2011, 12:12:01)
[GCC 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-50)]

If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please go to
the yum faq at:

How did you register your system with Red Hat? Was it with certificate-based authentication or some other non-standard method?
