I have also found that when the server asks for an external file e.g. rpm --import http://www.fedoralegacy.org/FEDORA-LEGACY-GPG-KEY it actually looks for it at http://www.realdns.biz/FEDORA-LEGACY-GPG-KEY Thanks for all help and guidance, Kind regards, John Fox. -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list
