CentOS - Dec 2004 - yum issue

I am trying to update a newly installed server and this is what i 
get when i yum update:
Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)
Server: CentOS-3.3 - Addons
retrygrab() failed for:
 
http://mirror.centos.org/centos-3/3.3/addons/i386/headers/header.info
   Executing failover method
failover: out of servers to try
Error getting file 
http://mirror.centos.org/centos-3/3.3/addons/i386/headers/header.info
[Errno 4] IOError: <urlopen error >


I went as far as to redownload and reburn the cd1(which is al i 
use for setups).  Any ideas?

You should be able to open the above header.info file in your browser
from that machine ... can you?

It seems your network card is not working or you can't resolve the name
mirror.centos.org. I just checked and that is the correct path and file
name for update.
