Description of problem:
when I do "update" in Xterm and select LARGE rpm such as kernel source
I get the following error:
[root]# up2date
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/gui.py", line 1869, in doRetrieval
    self.setRetrievalProgress)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/up2date.py", line 190, in getPackage
    buffer = rpcServer.doCall(repos.getPackage, pkg, msgCallback,
progressCallba
ck)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rpcServer.py", line 304, in doCall
    ret = apply(method, args, kwargs)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/repoDirector.py", line 35, in
getPackage
    return self.handlers[channel['type']].getPackage(pkg, msgCallback,
progressC
allback)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/rpmSource.py", line 183, in
getPackage
    package = source.getPackage(pkg, MsgCallback, progressCallback)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/repoBackends/up2dateRepo.py",
line 168, in
 getPackage
    f.close()
IOError: [Errno 5] Input/output error

I am not sure if it up2date or the local Co. forewall blocking larg
transfers.  Local security people have NOT been helpful.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
up2date-4.2.33-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.up2date
2.select kernal source rpm
3.continle button
    

Actual Results:  it downloads rpm then gets :

[root@tcwest1 cron]# up2date
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/gui.py", line 1869, in doRetrieval
    self.setRetrievalProgress)

progressCallba

getPackage
    package = source.getPackage(pkg, MsgCallback, progressCallback)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/repoBackends/up2dateRepo.py",
line 168, in
 getPackage
    f.close()
IOError: [Errno 5] Input/output error


Expected Results:  download and then install

Comment 1 Robert Flanigan 2004-08-30 15:49:26 UTC 
I just found out it was a LOCAL nfs problem!  When I switched to using
a local disk for the rpm files I did not get the error 5!  I still
think the Co. fire wall is making problems for the up2date command. 
My Fedora 1 systems are haveing problems for 3 weeks now.
