For some reason, one of my FC6 boxes is no longer able to "Add/Remove

With Pirut and Pup, after a few seconds I get the "Cannot retrieve
software information" error, and if I try
a "Yum -y update" I get the following error.
[root@localhost core]# yum -y update

I know the machine is connected to the network, and can browse the
internet fine. Another FC6 box on the same
network can add/remove update software fine. What might be causing the
difference?
Thanks in advance.
I used yum update without the -y and 13 hours later my FC6 was up to
date with 450 updates and 630 MB.
Not sure what the -y does.
