Hi,
it seems that yum ignores proxy settings on FC5:
[jwi@stujwi ~]$ set | grep proxy
http_proxy=http://httpprox.software-ag.de:8080/
https_proxy=http://sslprox.software-ag.de:443/
As you can see, the proxy settings are there.
[jwi@stujwi ~]$ wget http://fedora.redhat.com/

As you can see, they are also working. But yum ignores them. As
tcpdump shows me, it attempts to contact HTTP servers directly. Is
this a known problem and what can I do?

Are the proxy environment variables also present in the environment that
root gets using sudo?
sudo env | grep -i proxy
