> The next run will use the file://... repositories/ > > The config file looks like this: > [main] > cachedir=/var/cache/yum > debuglevel=2 > logfile=/var/log/yum.log > pkgpolicy=newest > failover=priority > > [base] > name=$YUM2 Red Hat Linux $releasever base > baseurl=file:///icarus/mirrors/ftp/pub/yum-repository/redhat/$releasever/$basearch/ > ftp://ftp.my.com/pub/yum-repository/redhat/$releasever/$basearch/ > gpgcheck=1 check out the yum.conf man page. failover is not a configuration setting under [main] it's not a config setting anywhere it's failovermethod= and it lives under each listed repository ie: [base] name=some name baseurl=url://foo url://foo2 url://foo3 failovermethod=priority see if that works. -sv
