Added this into yum.conf, and no changes...
Tried another time wget and gives me the following:
"
wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/glibc-common-2.3.5-10.i386.rpm
--16:15:26--

           => `glibc-common-2.3.5-10.i386.rpm'

Interrupted by myself after a long waiting (about 20mn of inactivity)...

While listing the http directory with Firefox, I got:
"
[ ]	glibc-common-2.3.5-10.i386.rpm 	30-May-2005 17:16 	 14M
"

I have enought disk space (no less than 8GB free on each partition)

Done a wget on gimp-help-2-0.1.0.71.noarch.rpm which is 14M too whithout problems...

This computer is a gateway. 
I've tried on another computer (RedHat 9 with kernel 2.6.9) which is on the internal network, and got the same problem, but wget blocks at 6,540,408.

Another try on my gateway with wget blocks at 6,536,240 (not the same as above)

Any idea???

Thanks,
