Can the stalled machine do other things on the internet (e.g. browse a webpage)? If it can, then it's possibly just a DNF issue to figure out. If you type ifconfig into the command line, does your ethernet port have a valid IP (not 127.0.0.1 nor an IP starting 169.254)? If it has one of them, it won't be able to do anything. Likewise if it has none. Does your PC have a nameserver configured in the settings? e.g. grep nameserver /etc/resolv.conf Without a DNS server to consult, the PC won't be able to resolve any host or domain names to connect to their IPs. What sets the network addresses for your PCs? Have you manually configured each PC with static IPs? Do you have a modem/router that sets the PCs network configuration via DHCP? Sometimes the modem/router needs a reboot (they can have bugs just the same as everything else). -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.92.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 20 11:48:01 UTC 2023 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
