Hi,

when I do a 'emerge sync' I get

Notice: (-2, 'Name or service not known')
>>> starting rsync with rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage...
>>> checking server timestamp ...
rsync: getaddrinfo: rsync.gentoo.org 873: Temporary failure in name resolution
rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(88)
>>> retry ...
Notice: (-2, 'Name or service not known')


>>> Starting retry 1 of 3 with rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage

-------

what does this mean.

I checked the time, its correct. It was all working fine a couple of days ago...

TIA

Hi,

nevermind, got it to work. I had changed the ip address to static and that was I guess causing an issue.. I changed it back to dhcp and its working now.
