Maybe you tried this in other ways, but looking at the error and what you put as the command, it looks like you are missing the command. Basically yum doesn't know if you want to do 'update' 'list' 'install' or what. So there is no point in it trying to download the config file if there is nothing to do. What happens if you do yum -c "http://linux.bankone.net/linux/yumconf.php?dist=redhat\&group=yumbase\&arch=i386\&ver=8.0" update Troy -- __________________________________________________ Troy Dawson dawson@xxxxxxxx (630)840-6468 Fermilab ComputingDivision/OSS CSI Group __________________________________________________
