Do you have a network connection? If so, is there a proxy that you need to use?
yes, i do have a network connection with my friend but i don't use any proxy.
What happens if you run 'yum check-update'?
Created attachment 127966 [details] result the result of yum check-update is given in the file provided. pirut did the expected while connected to internet.but how can i go for package management offline?
Right now, pirut requires a network connection. Progress on fixing this for FC6 is being tracked in bug 188750
