Yes, net is up; I do an NFS install. I can mount additional NFS shares
during the %post section without problems.

DNS is running, I've tried adding the line:

/usr/bin/nslookup www.redhat.com >/root/test1.log

just before calling yum, and I get:

Server:         172.20.0.1
Address:        172.20.0.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:   www.redhat.com
Address: 209.132.177.50
