If so, have a look here to set up your yum http://www.stanton-finley.net/fedora...notes.html#Yum Yumex will pick up any changes. You may also need to run as root yum clean all if you have not done so already. It should help. Seve __________________ Registered Linux User: #384977 .......................

# This file uses a new mirrorlist system developed by Lance Davis for CentOS.
# The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the
# update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and
# geographically close to the client. You should use this for CentOS updates
# unless you are manually picking other mirrors.

# If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the
# remarked out baseurl= line instead.
