Great!  Although yum hanging sounds strange!!!

Great again!!  However, I don't think firewalling is really necessary
if its a trusted internal system, ie: not internet facing.  Good idea to
setup an anonymous FTP area maybe to restrict where FTPers can go, but a
firewall sounds a bit like overkill, really.
