Pretty crap message for yum to return if the firewall is returning a relevant
bad http status. I’ll check in the morning & report it as a bug if so.

I tried running "yum makecache fast" and it times out. All is well for OL6,
only OL7 is affected:

I've been using it the OL7 repo the past three days without a hiccup.
Perhaps bypass yum and verify with wget on that and other boxes.
When our firewall was blocking yum (Checkpoint does by default, because
server installs and updates are bad apparently), I got an "XML corrupt" error
due to the message that Checkpoint sent back instead of the expected XML.
