You have to have the person's public key in order to check the signature. (Each repo includes the keys necessary to check packages from the repo.) The message you are getting indicates that the RPM you have was not signed. With the default configuration, Yum will not install unsigned RPMs. If you are sure you trust the packages, you can probably install them using: rpm -ivh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i586/java-1.5.0-sun-* Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
